IMPACT & METRICS

RaiSmart measures impact by providing more consistent irrigation under smallholder constraints—less “just-in-case” pumping, fewer dry/wet spots, and lower labor burden.

Target Metric (Pilot Baseline → After)

• Labor Time Saved : ~71% (120 → 35 min/day)

• Fewer Field Trips : ~64% (14 → 5 trips/week)

• Consistency Improved : +30 pts (45% → 75% in target band)

• Less “Just-in-Case” Pumping : ~50% (90 → 45 min/day pump runtime)

• Reliability : +12 hrs/week (150 → 162 hrs/week uptime)

** Targets shown above are placeholders for structure and will be validated during on-site pilots. Results will be reported per site/crop.

Measurement Plan

• Duration: 2–4 weeks per site

• Baseline: 3–5 days before installation (manual method)

• After: pilot operation on the same plot/crop

• Data sources: runtime/events logs, moisture readings at consistent points,short daily farmer check-in
