Treebos
Treebos uses a vertically integrated model to reorganize the financing production and produce distribution of small farms. rnrnTreebos.com enables web users to plant virtual trees online that represent actual fruit trees that Treebos plants in small farms in Brazil. Subscribers watch their trees grow online and get regular updates. They also purchase subscriptions that deliver the organic fruit sourced from these trees or local sustainable farms to their homes and offices. This creates a new source of web aggregated capital that subsistence farmers use to rebuild their agri businesses using organic methods and increase their income. rnrnTreebos addresses massive inefficiencies in Brazilian agriculture and supply chains up to 40% of produce gets lost on the way from the farm to table and the farmer gets only around 7% of the final market price. Brazil alone has over 3 million subsistence farms that lack access to productive investment and security of sale. Treebos creates an efficient supply chain and connects urban users directly with rural farmers paying farmers 60% more in the process. It also provides subscribers with their personal social and environmental impact metrics.
