Farm Explorer Live — Agribusiness Flagship

Route into full PBA lifecycle: needs assessment → business case → benefits management plan → charter basis → G2 before any promotion to Projects. No build work on the Farm Explorer block layer before gate approval — the lean live layer remains a candidate delivery option to be assessed within the business case (D4 design options), not a pre-approved shortcut. Season timing (3rd/4th RD harvest Aug–Oct 2026) to be treated as a constraint evaluated in the business case, not a reason to bypass gates.

Option O1 (phased lean block layer + demand generation) approved as the justified path. Conditions carried forward: (1) CEO to validate GHS 900/t price reference and scenario tonnage targets against Mampong/Kumasi price research during benefits plan/charter development; (2) Phase A prerequisites (contact form fix, planting dates, input-cost backfill, capture cadence) required before any public price or crop-health claim; (3) Data Trust clearance is a Phase B exit criterion; (4) O2 (full interactive platform) remains contingent on O1 evidence — first industrial agreement or ≥1 reserved block.

G1 price condition closed: reference price set at GHS 800/t as flexible starting basis (CEO decision) — floor-price methodology and financial scenarios to use 800 as baseline reference, adjustable against Mampong/Kumasi market data per stage. Delivery lane confirmed: build work (block layer + contact form fix) to Code under existing Portfolio & BA contract; farm data remediation internal (CEO/Farm Manager); Phase C demand generation CEO-led with Comms. Standing conditions: no public price/health claims before Phase A completion and Data Trust clearance; forward-sale cap 60–70% of conservative yield; O2 features gated on R2/R3 evidence.

Retroactive reconciliation: historical G3 combined planning and execution. The completed planning/baseline record is now formally approved as the distinct G3 stage.

G4 delivery is the released Farm Explorer capability. Activation, allocations, forward reservations and Design System learning continue as operations of Farm Explorer Live, not project-delivery conditions.

Acceptance/release applies to the delivered live product. Benefits measurement, activation and commercial cycles continue under product operations.

WP8-WP10 and Design System learning are ongoing Farm Explorer Live operations under named owners and metrics, not remaining project deliverables.

The delivered project output is the live product Farm Explorer Live (product_id 1413d6e1-0e1a-4c03-84f3-acfd7761c9e4; key farm_explorer_live), available at https://gabclimatesmart.com/farm-explorer. It persists as an operational capability after project closure; the project no longer owns ongoing commercial cycles.
