About Proximity 

Proximity Designs is tackling globally important issues at the nexus of climate change, deep poverty, food  insecurity, inequality and political conflict. We do this by helping hundreds of thousands of rural people  care for their soils, grow more food, earn better incomes and build resilience against climate change. We  address a critical government and market failure, by designing and delivering products and services needed  to make farming families more productive, profitable and environmentally sustainable. We offer our low income customers a suite of innovative and affordable farm solutions such as micro-irrigation systems, biofertilizers and bio-pesticides, soil health testing kits, on-call crop protection services and farm loans. 

Over the past 20 years, we’ve generated USD 782 million in additional income for 1.2 million poor farming  households across rural Myanmar. With this income increase, farmers can invest in their future: education  for their children, more nutritious food, better healthcare and investments in their farms or other village  enterprises.
