An Enterprise-driven blockchain ecosystem for agriculture sector that would allow farmers to sell their crops directly to retailers, exporters/importers, super markets chain, hotel industries, consumers, etc., without relying on the traditional multi-level distribution structure. Each farmer on the platform is registered using biometric verification, and get allotted with a unique meta ID. This meta information in a long run provides businesses and consumers a complete description of farmer’s land and the quality of crops they harvest like organic or non-organic, etc. They will also be able to preserve their crops using the facilities of brick-and-mortar cold storage and warehouse network.
