Was No Lean Season tut

No Lean Season reduces the negative effects of seasonality on the poorest in rural agricultural areas by enabling labor mobility that increases incomes. It is a new program that they are testing in Evidence Action Beta's portfolio, based on rigorous experimental evidence. They give a travel subsidy of $20 to very poor rural laborers so they can send a family member to a nearby city to find a job during the period between planting and harvesting. This is the time in rural areas when there are no jobs, no income, and when families miss meals. This seasonal poverty affects 600 million people around the world. With a temporary job during this 'lean season,' households are are able to put an additional meal on the table for every member of the family each and every day. That’s 500 additional meals during the lean season.

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We provide a travel subsidy of $20 to very poor rural laborers so they can send a family member to work in a nearby city during the lean season when local jobs disappear. This enables families to earn income during a time when there are no jobs on the farm, increasing food security with an additional meal each day for everyone in the household.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We are not based in one location. Our team is distributed. After YC, we plan to operate wherever our program reaches the rural communities who need it.

Explain your decision regarding location.

Because our program targets extremely poor rural areas affected by seasonal poverty, we remain flexible and distributed to deploy and manage the program at the locations where the need is greatest.
