Imagine....

Foodcoin is a blockchain ecosystem that is designed to create a global marketplace of food and agricultural products. Based on the experience with the active 1000 EcoFarms platform and on the Ethereum platform, Foodcoin stands for an ecosystem, that will be used by the farmers, manufacturers, farm product processors, cafes and restaurants, food delivery services, and other consumers and producers of food.

This I think is a great idea that could revolutionize our ways of growing, producing and storing our food. Small farmers would have access to a bigger market and could get paid easily without big fees, customers could track back their food and verify if it is actually organic, even diseases might be able to be tracked back to their origin. It could make the food economy quicker, fairer and healthier. What do you think?
