FarmingViaNFT Promises to Fund Agriculture
Amirul A'dha together with Malaysian Rimaunangis Digital LLC & Indonesian PT Mitra Sangkara Abadi, have launched a joint NFT agricultural marketplace, FarmingViaNFT. The marketplace is a virtual metaverse linked to funding the agricultural sector under Sharia compliance.
According to a Yahoo! press release, by leveraging NFTs, the platform provides a secure and transparent ecosystem where investors can contribute to the growth of the agricultural sector while farmers gain access to the financial resources they need to thrive.
According to its website, the company is planning to grow its business by promoting food sustainability using tokenization and smart-farming technologies regionally and globally. The goal is to revolutionize the agricultural sector for a more transparent, efficient, and environmentally friendly future.
The investors Rimaunangis Digital LLC & PT Mitra Sangkara Abadi, are no strangers to the Web3 world, having previously launched tokens of their own $RXT & $MISA. Users are able to purchase ownership of NFT tokens in order to participate in the agricultural funding schemes offered on the marketplace.
