Agrocylo is an Agro-DeFi platform. The aim is to make life easier for farmers (especially homegrown/urban), enabling exchange of agro-goods and services using an escrow system. It eliminates middlemen, allows peer-to-peer trade between farmers and consumers, and gives both parties access to Blockchain, Native DeFi, and Digital services.
Each purchase is secured using an a escrow mechanism: funds are locked when a customer places an order and are released only after the buyer confirms receipt of goods. This guarantees protection for both parties while maintaining full user custody.
-
On-chain escrow settlement - Funds are locked in an escrow smart contract until buyers confirm receipt of goods.
-
Non-custodial payments - Users retain full control of funds at all times.
-
Peer-to-peer Farmer-Consumer Marketplace - Farmers sell directly to consumers without middlemen, retaining price control and increasing income.
-
Token-based payment - Supports stablecoin and token payments (USDC, STRK, BTC, etc)
-
Access to DeFi services, e.g, BTC-fi, Tokens Staking, accessible via the Starkzap tool kit.
-
Buyer-confirmed settlement - Funds are never released to farmer/seller until the buyer confirms receipt of goods.
-
Unlimited parallel transactions - Unlimited concurrent trades can be carried out at a time, and each transaction is tracked by ID, time, status, amount, and associated addresses.
-
Order indexing by role - Buyers can view all their purchases and order statuses. Farmers can track incoming orders and pending payments.
-
Real-time updates and notifications - On-chain events are indexed and transmitted off-chain to deliver real-time order updates and notifications.
- Wider market reach and ease of payment - Small scale farmers face limited market access and fragmented payment systems.
- Post-harvest loss reduction - Farmers incure losses due to lack of storage facilities and limited market access
- Higher farmer profit and lower consumer cost - enabled by peer-to-peer interaction between farmer and consumer (Absence of middleman).
- Digital transformation of agriculture - price discovery tools, demand/supply aggregation tools to aid data-driven production.
