EcoFarmer just launched the new (and very promising) EcoFarmer Club membership programme and under this program farmers will have access to many different services and products. With such a broad list of functions we thought it might be helpful to have them all in one place.

In this article, we won’t be talking about how EcoFarmer Club works, for that you can read the article we wrote earlier.

How to register for EcoFarmer Club

  1. Dial *144#
  2. Select EcoFarmer Club (option 2)
  3. Select Subscribe (option 1)
  4. Select payment option (Users have 4 choices;monthly, every 6 months, yearly and weekly)
  5. Confirm request
  6. Enter your EcoCash PIN

The subscription will be confirmed and then auto rebilling will take place once the next payment is due.

How to Select EcoFarmer Club-Tips

Club members will also have access to tips on a selection of crops/livestock and EcoFarmer delivers these tips as bundles.These are not the bundles you are used to hearing about when we talk about network services but the tips are literally a collection of tips for crops and livestock bundled together. There are 12 bundles to chose from:

  1. Maize Groundnuts Cattle

  3. Maize Groundnuts Goats
  4. Maize Tobacco Cattle
  5. Maize Tobacco Goats

So how do you actually access these tips? Well, that’s not difficult either;

  2. Select EcoFarmer Club (option 2)

  4. Select your choice from the 12 bundles
