Harmonised East Africa agricultural data platform

Harmonised East Africa agricultural data platform. Flagship entry (market.commodity_prices) fuses 5 Kenyan price feeds into one 18-field vocabulary: official KAMIS market prices by named market and day for 195 commodities across 47 counties since May 2021 (fertiliser in 29 counties), online marketplace asking prices (Nairobi-weighted, so an official-vs-asking spread is computable), a monthly humanitarian series back to 2006, and coffee/tea auction results with min/avg/max by grade and factory plus per-sale-date FX conversion in KES and USD. Self-generated layers beyond price: a cropland vegetation anomaly series for 243 units (47 Kenyan counties, 31 Tanzanian regions, 135 Ugandan districts, 30 Rwandan districts) where each unit is compared only against its own eight-year climatology from a 10 m cloud-masked composite; a classified news-signal corpus with confidence scores; a regulatory/legal signal feed (WTO SPS notifications, statute changes); and LoRaWAN field-sensor telemetry (soil moisture/nutrients, water quality/flow, air temperature/humidity/pressure) from the operator's own stations.

Dataset card

Type: not stated
Format: Tabular REST API (18 fields/row; date-market-county-commodity-variety-price_type-unit-source tagging; start/end date, aggregation, field selection, 5,000-row limit, ordering) delivered via bearer token, an MCP connector and CSV export; plus confidence-scored signal records for news/regulatory items and time-series sensor readings
Volume: Stated coverage rather than estimated: 195 commodities × 47 counties daily since May 2021 on the official table, 29 counties for fertiliser, 243 administrative units on the vegetation layer, across 5 distinct source feeds on one vocabulary. The daily official table alone plausibly runs to low hundreds of thousands of rows per year; the monthly series adds ~240 months of history. The 5,000-row page limit implies a corpus far larger than one response.
Users: Est. well under 1,000 accounts (free tier requires no payment details, and the operator reports ~725 monthly site visits with a 2-person team, so the account base is small by construction)
History: 20 years
Update frequency: not stated
Growth: Active and recently shipped — the homepage publishes a live snapshot read 2026-10-05 (four days before this assessment) with the exact API call printed beneath each table, and the latest news and regulatory signals are dated to the same week; the catalogue is expanding across four countries.
Launched: est. 2025-2026 for this catalogue, on a NuaSense sensor business that predates it — the MCP connector, machine-readable catalogue and 'same call, three ways' docs are current-generation artefacts while the LoRaWAN sensor line is the older product. Note the ingested series reach back to May 2021 (2006 on the monthly feed); that is archive depth, not platform age.
