HARA means soil nutrition and they are feeding farmers in Indonesia. This is a blockchain company that is already working in the real world, with real farmers, bringing in real FIAT money. HARA field officers have been going out to the farmers since 2015, and they have already collected data from several thousand farmers. They have been educating farmers and collecting farm data. At the time of writing, there is a huge bear market and companies like HARA will be the ones standing this bear season. Check out this video in which HARA is featured in the first episode of Amazon's Now Go Build series This video alone shows how good this platform is, Amazon.com is a large retailer and being featured in one of their streaming shows is a big event that will attract investors. I especially like that they have already collected real-time data from real farmers. The data includes farmer identification and personal data, harvest data, pest data, etc.. Although this started out as an incentive for rice farmers, it could and will be extended to ranchers in the near future. Many of the selection schemes on animals require national data and having such a system that lets you collect data from family farmers could really help out animal model selection efforts and help select the best bulls, for example. Unlike many other ICOs, HARA already has a working app, and it is straightforward and user-friendly to the point that your grandma or run of the mill farmer can use it. The app has huge buttons and lets you even take pictures of the pest you found on your rice farm. The farmer can take a picture of the pest, and learn about it right from the app. This is helpful to many people without even going into token business. The tokens will be rewarded to farmers for collecting and providing their data, and to the data qualifiers to make sure the data presented is good quality, and there are no cheaters. If you are a token holder, you can interact with data providers and become a data qualifier. This alone will create jobs in poor regions of the world. The tokenomics here is excellent because they have kiosks, actual shops where you can purchase food using HART tokens! The farmer can see it first hand that providing his data can get him actual food. As the number of kiosks expands, more and more farmers will join the thousands that are already there. This will increase the robustness and dependability of the data because large data means better representation of the underlying population. HARA is planning to have millions of farmers on their data exchange platform. It could happen or not happen, but it is true that there will be many people on that platform, at least the several thousand people they already have will be using this. Their token pre-sale was sold out, so this alone shows the success of the platform.
The HARA system will help farmers register online, and will help them get the micro-credits they need. A lot of farmers sell their crops at very cheap rates, almost for free, before they even plant the seeds because they do not have access to capital. With the HARA system, which is now collaborating with HEXA Agro, small farmers will get the money they need to work their land, and they will be able to get a fair deal for their product after harvest. With blockchain involved, everything will be transparent and traceable. It is a win-win situation for both sides and heaps better than any solution that sacrifices the common good.
