Snap a photo of a sick crop. Ask a question in Hausa or English. Nomaa gives you clear, practical answers in seconds — planting, pests, fertilizer, animals, and market prices.
“Noma” is Hausa for farming — because this app speaks your language, literally.
Over 70% of Nigeria's rural households depend on smallholder farming. But when a crop turns yellow, pests attack, or prices crash — most farmers have no expert to call.
One government extension officer can serve thousands of farmers. Most smallholders may go a whole season without expert advice — problems get diagnosed too late, or never.
Pests like fall armyworm and diseases like blight and rust can destroy a large share of a season's harvest — losses that timely, correct advice could prevent.
Without guidance, farmers buy the wrong fertilizer, spray the wrong chemical, or plant at the wrong time. Scarce cash is spent on inputs that don't solve the real problem.
Nomaa puts an AI agricultural advisor on any smartphone. It knows the crops, pests, seasons and markets of northern Nigeria — and it never closes.
Snap a picture of a sick plant or a pest. Nomaa tells you what it likely is and exactly what to do — starting with low-cost methods.

Nomaa identifies the most likely problem from your photo and tells you honestly when it is unsure. For serious or fast-spreading problems, it will always advise you to contact your nearest extension officer or vet quickly. It's a helper, not a replacement for professionals in emergencies.
All the major crops of northern Nigeria: sorghum (dawa), millet (gero), maize (masara), rice (shinkafa), cowpea (wake), groundnut (gyada), sesame (ridi), soybean, and vegetables like tomato, pepper and onion — plus cattle, sheep, goats and poultry.
Nomaa never pushes brands. When a real fix requires an input — say a fungicide or certified seed — it names the generic input type and can connect you to trusted suppliers near you. The advice always comes first, starting with low-cost methods.
Yes. Your questions, photos, and details are used only to serve you better and are never sold. Location is only used, with your permission, to give you local advice and connect you to nearby suppliers.
