Forward contracts
Reserve the harvest before it’s grown.
Harvest Pledges let buyers lock a price on an upcoming crop and farmers secure a guaranteed sale — with the deposit held safely in escrow until delivery.
30% deposit in escrow
Balance on confirmed delivery
How a pledge works
From listing to delivery.
- 01
Farmer lists a future harvest
Crop, expected quantity, harvest window and a deposit rate — before a single seed is sown or while the crop grows.
- 02
Buyer reserves with a deposit
The buyer locks the price and pays a 20–50% deposit into escrow. The harvest is now reserved for them.
- 03
Farmer grows with certainty
A guaranteed buyer and upfront working capital — field agents log progress at each milestone.
- 04
Harvest delivered, balance released
On confirmed delivery the deposit and balance release to the farmer, net of a 2.5% fee.
Fair to both sides, whatever happens.
If the farmer can’t deliver
100% of the deposit is returned to the buyer automatically, and the farmer’s AgroScore is adjusted.
If the buyer backs out
50% of the deposit compensates the farmer for preparation costs already incurred.
Escrow the whole way
No deposit or balance ever moves until the milestone that releases it is met. Both sides are protected.
Lock in your next harvest today.
Guaranteed sales for farmers, guaranteed supply for buyers — protected by escrow.
