Agrochain

Problem

The agricultural sector often suffers from intermediaries taking large cuts, delaying payments, and causing lack of trust between farmers and buyers. Farmers lack secure mechanisms to sell directly to buyers.

Approach

A web application acting as a decentralized trust layer. Farmers list produce and buyers pay into an escrow. Money releases only after delivery. Zero platform fees to start, with verified user profiles.
