From Global Strategy to Local Activation.

Kilimo operates a basin-level platform to activate water stewardship in priority basins worldwide. Our model delivers measurable water benefits with consistent criteria in diverse territories through a science-led approach.

A consistent science based model,
applied basin by basin

Our single framework connects global water strategy with on-the-ground action, enabling water resilience across diverse territories.

We translate hydrological, agricultural, and territorial conditions into clear criteria for action in each geography.

We work with farmers and local actors to align decisions with basin-level water dynamics. Depending on basin conditions, we activate targeted interventions that bring shared criteria into practice:

AI for efficient irrigation management
Irrigation conversion
Regenerative agriculture

These interventions vary by territory and operate under a consistent decision framework.

We quantify volumetric water benefits under consistent criteria, enabling comparison and continuous learning across territories.

These outcomes are generated and sustained through continuous engagement with farmers in each geography.

CO-BENEFITS

Beyond water outcomes

Our interventions generate basin-level value by strengthening ecosystems, supporting local communities, and reinforcing resilience.

Strengthening ecosystems

Enhancing biodiversity and environmental health at the basin level

Supporting local communities

Creating opportunities through improved water management

Reinforcing local resilience

Building capacity to adapt to changing water conditions

Farmer Engagement

Farmer engagement is how the model operates in each geography.

Their decisions are where water stewardship becomes real and where outcomes are generated, sustained, and validated over time. We engage farmers through a structured approach that ensures consistency across territories while adapting to each context:
