Nurture

A decentralized Farming Platform

The problem Nurture solves

To feed today's global population, we currently need a farm land equal to the size of South America. Despite the excessive amount of land already allocated for agriculture, an estimated 815 million people worldwide still sleep hungry each night. In addition, by the end of 2050 the worldwide population is estimated to be 9 billion. Modern cities of the world already have half the world's population, which follows that the effect of projected growth in the global population will be drastically reduced by the habitable land to maintain modern infrastructure to extreme levels. Urban areas are not built for agriculture but a rapidly changing world already lacking land with hunger and agricultural difficulties inspired us to come up with a solution that can redefine the way we think about agriculture.
