What Is Agricultural Due Diligence?
Verified Intelligence Before You Commit Capital, Contracts, or Credibility
Agricultural due diligence is an independent, on-the-ground assessment of a farm, cooperative, outgrower scheme, or supply chain β conducted before an investment, purchase contract, partnership, or programme commitment is finalised.
It answers the question every serious buyer, investor, and development organisation needs answered: does what this farm or organisation claims on paper actually exist in the field?
In Kenyaβs agricultural sector, the gap between what producers claim and what they can actually deliver is one of the most common and costly risks for buyers, investors, and NGO programme managers. We close that gap with verified, documented field intelligence.

β What You Get With Our Due Diligence
Types of Due Diligence
Four Assessment Types β Each Designed for a Specific Need
Assessment Coverage
What We Verify in the Field
Certification Status
Verification of claimed certifications β we confirm directly with certification bodies, not just review the certificate.
Production Capacity
Verified farm size, crop variety, tree/plant count, and realistic annual yield estimates based on field observation.
Labour Practices
Worker welfare, wage records, child labour assessment, PPE availability, and worker interview protocols.
Agrochemical Management
Pesticide storage conditions, application records, MRL compliance risk, and restricted substance usage.
Water & Soil
Water source documentation, irrigation records, erosion risk, and soil management practices.
Record-Keeping Systems
Farm diary quality, input purchase records, harvest logs, and traceability system functionality.
Management Systems
Organisational structure, decision-making capacity, financial management, and governance systems.
Photographic Evidence
Timestamped, geotagged field photographs documenting conditions, facilities, and compliance status.
How It Works
From Brief to Written Report in 7β10 Business Days
Scope & Brief Agreement
We discuss your specific due diligence requirement β what you need verified, what decision it will inform, the location and type of operation, and your timeline. We provide a fixed-scope quote and confirm methodology. Confidentiality is absolute.
Document Review (Remote)
We review all available documentation β certificates, registration documents, financial records, production data, and programme reports. We identify what we need to verify on-site versus what can be confirmed remotely.
On-Site Field Assessment
Our consultant visits the farm, cooperative, or programme site. We conduct physical verification, worker interviews (where applicable), record inspection, facility assessment, and timestamped photographic documentation. We mobilise within 48β72 hours of confirmation.
Certification & Reference Verification
We independently confirm certification status with the relevant certification bodies and verify any other claims that can be cross-referenced against external sources. We do not rely solely on documents presented by the subject of the assessment.
Written Report Delivered
You receive a structured written report within 5 business days of the field visit β covering all assessed areas, key findings, risk flags, photographic evidence, and a clear summary recommendation. The report is formatted for use in investment decisions, procurement processes, or programme documentation.
