Kasamani Mandela Ahmed

Ahmed Mandela Kasman grew up on a farm in an area where sugarcane farming exposed him to institutionalized agribusiness attention and mechanized farming at an early age. He studied at Mawengo Technical Institute and took computer classes, targeting working at Mumias Sugar Company. He attained this goal by going a step further to train for a Certificate in Sugarcane Production at the then, extremely well managed (Mumias) Sugar Company. Equipped with an Intermediate Defensive Driving Certificate from Automobile Association of Kenya, Ahmed was hired by Mumias where he gained huge experience managing land preparation and transport machinery across the Sugar Industry Zones of Kenya, for 7 years. Ahmed knows what it means to receive new fleets of machinery, as well as work old ones with efficiency. He knows how to manage and service agricultural machinery and record their work performance (hard and soft), etc. During his years at Agrimech he has become familiar with High Level Operator and Booking Agent Training as the company’s prime Field Supervisor. Today he is an excellent farmers’ and Mechanization Service Providers’ friend, loaded with operational systems, tools and other etiquette. Working under the Hello Tractor partnership with Agrimech, Ahmed knows the value and is familiar with Digital Platform Operation and Data management.
