Agrepedia: Rethinking Agriculture and Food Security

---------

Our third App Igniter Challenge submission comes from Agrepedia. Check out their submission below:

Agrepedia's aspiration is to be a network orchestrator providing next generation mobile agriculture information and computing technology and services to increase agriculture production and food processing throughout the agriculture value chain.  

Our platform will provide Web, Voice, IVR and SMS to create a 21st century agriculture ecosystem, by enabling collaboration and facilitation to stakeholder groups and agents such as farmers, Intermediaries (brokers, processors, coops) and supporting organizations (extensions services, NGOs, Foundations, researchers and government).

Visit Agrepedia online, and connect with them on twitter.

Our second Voice App Igniter Challenge submission: CallSharing from FriendCaller and C2Call! See the CallSharing submission below.

Our idea is a super simple mobile conference service called CallSharing:

User creates the invite to the conference call through the CallSharing iPhone/Android app, it is send via email or text directly accessing the native address book, so it is easy to arrange the conference, user can tweet or share the link as well.

We assign every CallSharing user a personal phone number to dial in, so you always call the same number, no access codes, no searching for the right number to call.

User calls out, and since the user accepts the conference invite, the system knows how to route the call to the right conference, therefore no access code is required.

This concept goes further, the user can get the invite to the call via SMS from his dial-in number, so it would work even on feature phone, black berry, symbian and more. The user can accept or decline via txt response

There is another component as well related to our patented browsing technology, we can analyse the device OS that opens the link and offer the best option to call in, including a VoIP option. The attractive part is the unique and permanent dial in number, it becomes simply a contact that invites to the call, who can be called, so conference calling becomes much more natural to the user as it now.

We have the complete technology stack: the call-in, messaging, conferencing and inetwork would be the ideal partner.

You've probably guessed that this isn't a real submission, just a video we cooked up as a sample entry.
