History 0f Agriculture
The tamed of plants and animals such development and the dissemination of techniques on how to raised them productively has started around the globe.
In 20,000BC, humans are started eating Wild Grains. The most eaten food until now, the Rice was first domesticated in China by around 6200 BC with the earliest known cultivation from 5700 BC. However, Farming has began 10,000 BC this is on land that became known as FERTILE CRESCENT.
According to some articles, Before human's started planting and farming, they were hunting those wild animals and wild plants, suddenly they felt that the supplies are not enough to feed them so they started new techniques. If you were hunting, obviously you will need to go to the other place and hunt. I remember some Fairytales were foreign hunters carrying a gun and killed poor fox, bears, dears and rabbits for foods it's a breaking scene those days im watching television on childhood. Just what I was saying, humans started to build community, where they plant some crops, grains and raised animals like pigs and chickens in the nearby land. They also started to built a more stronger permanent homes. They're life was change with this new techniques that they had discovered that we and the future still benifited.
The Dramatically Decreasing Of Farmlands.
Due to humans increasing knowledge, for improving agricultural and other industry, we are facing the decreasing of Farmland and the worst, our planet.
THE MORE POPULATION, THE MORE TO FEED.
In the 2100, in the next 40years, Our population will be reached up to 12 billion.
FARMLAND TRADED TO RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT.
When I was a child, there were an Urban Corn Farm a walking distance on our old house. That farm was become reddish as the sunrises and the field was filled by thousands of red dragonflies. And when the month of November comes, it was filled by the thousands of fireflies at night. Last year, I come to visit my old house, I saw the field has gone. What I saw was a Townhouses and a small playground on the right side. My old neighbour told me that they sold the Corn Field to a real estate owner.

Before we encountered the worst thing that is to destroy our own planet, we may need to apply some way to reduce the things that destroying it. Agribusiness is also facing the weakened by the lack of the innovation, the liquidity, the accessibility and the visibility. The difficulty in trading and managing the farmlands are also a big problem .
Im in the point of my life, that I wanted to had my own Corn Farm. Since then, I never dream to work for people, I was always dreaming that people will work for me. And Agribusiness is my key. Since that I'm also into Blockchain, I was firstly research some startup projects that the will bring innovation to the agriculture. I saw a Cryptocurrencies beyond field, it's called FieldCoin
Disclamer: This article is not a financial advice. I’m not a financial experts.

DYOR and seek guidance from a professional financial expert that you’ve trusted.
With the aims to create a first ever decentralized global platform to exchange and manage a land properties, FieldCoin created a new ecosystem adopting blockchain. The idea has started when the founder Mr. Marc Couzic built a unique trade backed protocol for token holders loose their tokens in the season of bear market. FieldCoin is bridging those blockchain and agricultural land trading and become a successful project, and start from their uniqueness token, at may be the best of 2018-2019 project.
The Use Of FLC Tokens.
The first FCO (Field Coin Offering)
In a sentence: The token is used for land transactions, agricultural project crowdfunding, collateral loan deposits and an innovative tokenomics that links the asset of your ERC20 token to the physical assets in the ecosystem. Land is the most stable assets of all. It has been so for the last decades.
FieldCoin had a many farmers and real estate investors interested by them. However, they aim to make their platform user friendly so that anyone can "play" owning land and deciding what crops they will plant. No specific competences are needed as they won't let people make unrational choices. But still they will have the possibility to get their property out of the DAO and do what they want. The idea is to educate people at the same time on how agriculture economics work. All this will be done remotely through their applications.
@FieldCoin plan to target Western Europe 1st, then Eastern Europe and South East Asia by 2020.
Is Fieldcoin will be on the 80% of failed ICO?
This is exactly why they have built Fieldcoin.
“Gold is the closest we have come to a true currency, But even here, we have fallen short because it simply does not fit with the needs of a global digital economy.” -- states Marc Couzic, CEO .
Too often people forget that Blockchain is a mean, a tool, not an end. FieldCoin have spotted every possible glitches to get one of the best coin we have so far. The most important is to have the sound application to the real sound problem. We have and Fieldcoin solve the problem of land ownership and farming. Those are the 5 basics benefits/improvements needed for a project to succeed:
- easy to trade
- cheaper transaction costs
- faster transaction
- more transparent/secure
- and above all a real off chain application.
What can we do with the Platform?
More Ease and Quicker sending of application for being the owner or renter of a property that you’ve chosen.
It's the most important for me that the marketplace allows crypto-heads to pay using our assets.
No time to manage your field? then the Platform offers a management service for your property.
I do believe that this project will had more development in the near future, so we must stay tune.
Most of Farmers are uneducated. We all know that.

Some one asked Couzic, How will they going to encourage farmers who barely cant read english, what more, a whitepaper to invest in this token.
and to be quoted CEO response;
Actually, farmers are the ones who know the best our whitepaper. After conferences, I was even surprized to see that farmers understood better Fieldcoin's concept than many crypto investors. The WP is in english and french, the websites and bitcointalk are translated into many languages. We have been busy developping the solution. But you have a point, we will update that as soon as we can. That remark make me jump to another topic, which is technological evolution and education. Agriculture is one of the only sector that has not been revolutionized by 3.0, sometimes even 2.0 Technologies. In 10 years from now, in many regions, robots will be taking care of the lands. Humans will be here to monitor the production. Farmers are already entrepreneurs and will become "factory owners" in the year to come. They will have to adapt to new efficient and ecological methods of production. This is same issue in many sectors.
Author's Forewords
Give me a reason on why people staying away from Cryptocurrencies? Isn't it because it's cost too high or isn't it because of its none intrinsic value? Remember in 2017 where 1 Bitcoin cost 20,000$ and now it down around 70%. It’s a total lost for those holders, so people would more get in touch to buy house's, car's, realestate or other luxury instead in investing on crypto currency. And for my understanding, FieldCoin was made for that reason; is to merge tangible value with the ease of Blockchain technology!
However, On how it’s looks like a good project for me, it’s still merely my own opinion. Research more and you can find many startups projects that may or may not found better than this. You can tracked FieldCoin on ICOBench
