For agricultural insurers

See the risk in every poultry farm you cover.

Nche devices keep a continuous, time-stamped record of how each insured farm is run, and warn the farmer, and you, while a loss can still be prevented.

    What you get

    Underwrite on facts. Prevent losses. Settle claims on the record.

    Price on real conditions

    Underwrite each farm on how it’s actually run: heat, air, water and flock health, not a form filled in once a year.

    Prevent losses, not just pay them

    Early alerts reach the farmer while there’s still time to act. Fewer dead birds means fewer claims.

    Claims checked against the record

    See what happened and when, from readings sealed on the device as they’re taken (in the pilot build). Faster for honest farmers, harder to game.

    Your whole book on one screen

    Every covered farm in one view, with the few that need attention at the top.

    Reward well-run farms

    Offer better terms to farms that monitor, and grow your poultry book with confidence.

    Consent built in

    Farmers agree in writing to share their farm’s data with you, and can see exactly what is shared.

    How it works

    Your farms report in. You see the risk, early.

    Security and trust

    How Nche keeps every record honest.

    A farm record only helps a bank or an insurer if nobody could have changed it. This is how Nche is being built so they don’t have to take anyone’s word for it.

    Sealed by this box’s chip

    Anyone with the box’s public key can run this check (a bank, an insurer or an auditor) without having to trust Nche.

    In the pilot build

    Sealed at the source

    Every reading is signed inside a secure chip in the box. The signing key is made in the chip and can’t be copied out, not even by Nche.

    In the pilot build

    Locked on the way

    Readings travel to Nche over an encrypted connection, so nobody in between can read or change them.

    In the pilot build

    Anyone can check

    A lender or insurer can check any record against the device’s public key, without relying on Nche to vouch for it.

    In the pilot build

    Knows if it’s tampered with

    The box records if it’s opened, unbolted, knocked or moved, and those records are sealed just like a reading.

    Privacy notice in review

    Your farm’s data stays yours

    Handled under Nigeria’s Data Protection Act 2023. Nche never sells farm data, and a bank or insurer sees a farm’s records only if the farmer agrees. Read the privacy notice.

    Secure chip rated JIL High NIST-validated cryptography (CAVP A4280)

    Microchip’s published results for the ATECC608C, the secure chip Nche plans to use. They describe the chip, not Nche as a whole.

    Questions insurers ask

    The short answers.

    Can the data be tampered with?

    Nche is being built so that it can’t be changed unnoticed: in the pilot build, a secure chip in the device seals each reading when it’s taken, with a time stamp, so any later change shows. See “How Nche keeps every record honest” above. The record is continuous, not a spot check.

    What about the farmer’s privacy?

    Farmers agree in writing to share their farm’s data with you, and can see exactly what is shared.

    Who pays for the devices?

    We agree the set-up with you. Some partners fund devices for the farms they cover; others make them part of the policy.

    Can we start small?

    Yes. Most partners start with a pilot group of farms and expand after the first cycle.

    Where do you operate?

    We’re starting in Nigeria and adding countries with partners. Tell us where your book is.
