Too Long; Didn't Read

Hello guys, i will be discussing a new project conceptualization, the first of its kind. This project is simply the integration of blockchain technolgy with food science. I keep emphasizing the limitless possibility of blockchain technology in our everyday life, this project tends to be one portraying this point. The name of this project is ATFS standing for AgriTech & Food Science. Firstly, lets look into the whole idea of this project.

INTRODUCTION TO ATFS PROJECT

What is ATFS?

ATFS is the world’s first decentralized AgriTech & Food Science crowdfunding project built on Ethereum Blockchain and Smart Contracts. It is a project that addresses the problem of limited food and reduced agriculture production that our world currently faces. It is a decentralized platform which is built on Ethereum Blockchain and Smart Contracts. ATFS was conceptualized to solve the problem of feeding the world’s increasing population. This problem can’t be well understood without going through detailed explanation.

It is predicted that the numbers of population in the world will reach around 9.7 billion by 2050. The number is 34% higher than the current number. And around 2.1 billion of them will be people over 60 years of age. It is also predicted that 70% of the population will be about urban environment and urbanization will be the major focus on the development.

However, it doesn’t mean that urbanization will promote the good lifestyle and healthy eating habit. In fact, the statistics show that developed nations’ eating habit includes the protein obsession, which isn’t entirely healthy or good. If the numbers of the population will double, or even triple, the needs of animal-based protein will increase and soon no one pay attention to the existence of agricultural produce anymore. This is the condition that ATFS tries to prevent. If no one is paying attention to the agricultural aspect anymore, no one will increase the agricultural productivity — and that would be a big problem. That’s why the agricultural revolution is needed, and you can support it by investing in the project.

ATFS project aims to enhance people’s quality of life all around the world by revolutionizing the current food system. ATFS aims to do that by tying up with the already existing technology of blockchain and bring about a new ecosystem that will help the current world problem of growing needs and demands on the diminishing agricultural sector of which its current target market includes Asia, which they will then expand the rest of the world. Therefore, it is necessary and critical to secure funding during our crowdfunding period. By participating, you are joining a group of like-minded pioneers who knows of the benefits that the next agricultural revolution will generate. The profits from all stages of the ATFS Project will be shared based on ATFS Token’s smart contracts.

How it works

With the aid of the ecosystem with the Smart Farm 2.0, ATFS tokens, Disruptive Decentralized Platform, and Smart Contracts, ATFS will be able to create an efficient, secure, and thoroughly connected system for their business model.

ATFS will be able to combine information, technology, communication, Internet of Things, Big Data and more within the agriculture industry by using the Smart Farm 2.0 feature which will have the ability of tactically and automatically controlling various aspects of the intelligent farm such as temperature, humidity, climate, sunlight, carbon dioxide, water and so on. It doesn’t end there. With the help of big data analysis, Smart Farm will be able to optimize the growth environment and direct specific controls based on information collected and its analysis. This will definitely help to maximize the productivity, efficiency, and quality of the agricultural products.

Another major part of the project to take note of is the Disruptive Decentralized Platform. This is an integral part as it will make the distribution process straightforward and uncomplicated for farmers and consumers. According to their whitepaper, the Disruptive Decentralized Platform is an easy-to-use platform with convenient access running on the apps and web anytime, anywhere. It will even be using cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, Ethereum, and all ERC20 as well as fiat currency for all payment transactions.

The next part of the ATFS’s technology includes using Plant Based meat as an alternative to protein supplements that are usually supplied through animal-based food products. This technology will employ biotechnology and synthetic biology along with agricultural cultivation capability and technology accumulated from the Smart Farm 2.0 operations.

On a final note, i see this project as a big step in technology, food science and also blockchain integration because this project is on the course to help solve a global problem which will end a major crisis of food shortage that currently exists in some regions and also considering the worlds increasing population, this project is worth looking into.
