A farmer deciding whether to sell or hold needs current prices across multiple markets simultaneously. That comparison exists nowhere as a single queryable source.
Soko = market in Swahili.
A farmer in Nakuru doesn't know that maize prices in Nairobi are 40% higher that week. Traders know. Farmers don't. This information asymmetry is one of the most costly structural disadvantages facing smallholder farmers. soko-mcp closes it.
The Structural Problem
In mature commodity markets, price discovery is instantaneous — futures markets, satellite price tickers, and SMS alerts exist for every major exchange. A grain elevator in Iowa checks live CME prices before making any offer.
In Kenya, most smallholder farmers receive the price the trader offers, with no independent benchmark to compare against. The result: systematic underpricing at harvest, systematic overpricing at planting.
Information asymmetry is a tax on the poor.
