A technology company founded by a woman is helping small-holder farmers survive lockdown (Health-E News) 

Health-E News (South Africa) published an article on a new technology company that helps small-holder farmers connect to the whole agricultural value chain. Cut off from their customers during the lockdown, small-holder farmers were struggling. Restaurants and food vendors were not allowed to operate under the hard lockdown, and these farmers lost their usual customers. This new tech company helped farmers on their database find new customers. The article referenced the IFPRI tool, COVID-19 Food Trade Policy Tracker that showed global food stocks were high, but local food producers were cut off due to trade restrictions.
