SoilSynth - Climate Intelligence
A new layer of data infrastructure helping financial institutions understand agricultural risk from the ground up.
The Invisible Layer
Soil is the foundation of every agricultural decision - yet it remains one of the least understood variables in lending, program design, and policy. Trillions in capital are allocated annually based on what is above ground, while the variables below it go unmeasured.
The Gap
Farmers
Smallholders lack standardized data needed to access agricultural credit - not because their land is not productive, but because productivity is unmeasured.
Institutions
Banks, insurers, and program managers make multi-million dollar decisions on land they cannot see. Risk models rely on proxies, not ground truth.
The System
The agricultural financing gap exceeds $170bn annually in emerging markets. Poor soil data sits at the center of this market failure.
What We're Building
Building the intelligence layer for soil data - transforming how agricultural systems are understood, evaluated, and financed.
Outcomes
Give credit institutions the soil risk signals they need to price agricultural exposure with confidence.
Replace proxy assumptions with standardized soil indicators, enabling actuarial models to reflect ground-level reality.
Reduce perceived uncertainty in smallholder agriculture, unlocking capital that currently sits on the sideline.
Direct subsidies, inputs, and extension programs to where they generate the highest measurable impact.
Who It's For
SoilSynth is built for the organizations that shape agricultural outcomes at scale - banks, insurers, NGOs, and governments - who need a common language for soil risk to make better decisions.
Pilot Program
We are working with a small group of partners to shape the next generation of agricultural intelligence. Apply to join the pilot.
