Mais peças para construir um futuro em Mongo

 Mão amiga fez-me chegar "Blockchain Agriculture Will Change Farming & Food" de onde retirei:
"How do you know the organic produce you purchased is really organic?
.
Last year, the U.S. Inspector General found that potentially millions of pounds of fake organic produce are entering American supermarkets every year. This isn’t just a problem for consumers. It also cheapens the efforts of farmers who are producing real organic produce.
.
Consequently, there has been rising interest in systems that can verify the authenticity of a product’s supply chain. Blockchain is an excellent choice for this application. Farms could use blockchain to add verified organic products to the ledger. Then, consumers could use a mobile app to check the history of a piece of produce in the store in real time.
...
Multinational corporations dominate the current agriculture industry. They are often the largest buyers on the market, so they can set prices and tell farmers what to grow in a given season. However, blockchain agriculture could make small enterprises and community-sponsored farming more prevalent.
...
Blockchain agriculture can solve some of the governance, distribution, and shareholding challenges of operating a community-sponsored agriculture initiative. With tokenized shareholding and smart contracts-based distribution, community-sponsored agriculture could scale much more effectively, connecting farmers to consumers directly. This whole community-supported agriculture transition could even be automated, with ownerless farmshares around the world.
...
The more transparent food production becomes, the more information consumers will have to make smart food decisions. Blockchain agriculture could make food cheaper, but it will also make it easier to track where our food is coming from. Blockchain could be the key to making real, organic, locally-sourced produce affordable and available to everyone."
A convergência da tecnologia com a procura e valorização crescente da proximidade e autenticidade, a possibilidade de desenvolver novos modelos de negócio. Mais peças para construir um futuro em Mongo.
