The following document describes a proposed project that seeks to evaluate the impact of open data access between agro-based value chain stakeholders will have on value chain financing. Specifically, it will build on current agriculture open data initiative, on which I am already a developer, to produce an agro-financing decision support system (AFDSS) that assists in identifying value chain partners and assessing the risk of loan applicants.
The project will include a case study in which the proposed AFDSS will be implemented and validated against current risk assessment methods utilized by financial institutions in the predominantly agro-based economy of St Thomas, Jamaica.
