Ipherdeo/CropCompass

Agricultural pricing & profitability tool for Nigerian smallholder farmers. Uses 35 months of NBS commodity price data to surface optimal sell windows, profit ranges, and input cost breakdowns across 5 SW Nigeria crops. # CropCompass **Smarter harvest decisions for Nigerian smallholder farmers.** CropCompass helps farmers in South-West Nigeria answer one question: *when should I sell my harvest to maximise profit?* It uses 35 months of NBS commodity price data to model sell-window profitability, accounting for yield uncertainty, price volatility, farmgate margins, and post-harvest storage — and shows results as a confidence interval range, not a single guess. > Built as Phase 1 of the AgriProfit AI project. --- ## Live Demo > Deployment coming soon (Vercel).
