A hub is not a building. It’s a contract between a community and a set of services — equipment, agronomy, inputs, training, and offtake — that show up reliably, season after season.
What looks like a workshop from the road is actually a dispatch desk, a clinic for demo-plot questions, a parts counter, a training room, and a weighbridge — depending on the day and the week.
The thing that makes a hub work is not its capital expenditure. It’s the local team, and the protocols they share with every other hub on the network.
