No more hungry in the world, this is the promise of PAVO ico ...

A recent report by the Global Harvest Initiative on the future of food production in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) points out that the LAC region is the ideal future bread basket for the world. It is already a world leader in food production, in addition to being home to a third of the world's freshwater resources and a quarter of the world's medium to high potential fertile land. In the report, the president of the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB), Luis Alberto Moreno, argues that "the export skill of the region is already being demonstrated in real terms, from the vast rains in Brazil to the packing plants in Argentina and Uruguay, and in the small coffee plantations of Central America, the asparagus fields of Peru and the corn fields of Mexico.

As the world population continues to grow, recent estimates indicate that there could be almost 10 billion people by 2050, which would cause a 70% increase in global caloric needs, which will require a 70% increase in production of food, feed and fibers. Latin America is actively preparing to lead the way to meet future demand. Brazil, in particular, is already a regional agricultural leader, and next week the team from Pavo is heading to the Blockspot Conference of the country in São Paulo to present its blockchain and IoT technology solution that aims to revolutionize the world of production and distribution food.

Population growth puts pressure on land use and the environment in general, so countries like Brazil are turning to AgTech solutions to address environmental concerns while seeking to become the world's leading food producers. Brazil is currently one of the world's leading exporters of food products such as sugar, coffee, cashew nuts, soybeans and chicken, but they also want to be world leaders in environmental and social sustainability. The country is ready to take the lead in the adoption of innovative technology, and Pavo believes that they have the ideal solution that will catapult the Brazilian agricultural industry in the future.

The company has already implemented its solution on hazelnut and almond farms in Europe, and is expanding to tree farms in California, a state that imposes restrictive irrigation regulations. Tree nuts are notoriously sensitive to when irrigated and even to precise harvest conditions. Obtaining these errors can be expensive for producers, therefore, advanced analytical capabilities, such as those integrated in the Pavo software, can have a positive impact on the increase in yields. The initial product of Pavo collects data directly from the field and processes it, to guide the decisions of the farmers on the optimum conditions of cultivation, from the seed to the irrigation until the ideal conditions of harvest.

They have even developed a method that uses software to predict the total yield of hazelnut by modeling the responses of each individual tree to its local environmental conditions. The predictions of the model are compared with historical performance values ​​collected over a 10-year period. These predictions offer an alternative to the use of retrospective analysis alone and provide a crop estimation method that incorporates the impact of current climate conditions. For LAC countries such as Brazil, which have drastically different regional climatic and climatic conditions, this type of precise analysis could be a factor of change.

What sets Pavo apart from other farm management systems is that its platform integrates blockchain technology, which means it can now offer a complete solution for the entire growth and distribution supply chain.

Jesse Martinez, co-founder of the Latino Startup Alliance, a non-profit organization that supports global entrepreneurs and entrepreneurs in Latin technology, says Pavo has developed the kind of platform that the Brazilian agricultural sector is looking for at the moment. "AgTech represents a global market opportunity, with Brazil being the largest food exporter in Latin America after the US By taking Pavo to Brazil, this will help to boost the startup culture that is flourishing in the country, in addition to providing very welcome tools and financial capabilities for agriculture in the country. "

Another challenge facing modern food producers is climate change, and LAC policy researchers are trying to address how food security and environmental sustainability will affect. This is where traditional agricultural techniques can be crossed with AgTech solutions that support small farmers, giving them the opportunity to continue working cooperatively and producing higher value crops, says the CEO and co-founder of Turkey, Erhan Cakmak. "Our platform tracks information and uses it to optimize the entire growth cycle by ensuring that vital crop measurements are kept within optimal ranges," he says. "Our data scientists have made predictive models that show that significant yield increases can be achieved, regardless of crops, by implementing Pavo in agricultural epicenters like Brazil." This means that local farmers can share and analyze the data at time to make adjustments to optimize the growth conditions of your crops and, at the same time, play a role in helping to define best practices for your region and beyond.

This technology is dynamic and allows producers to share knowledge that sustains the land instead of exhausting it. The Turkey system is taking AgTech to the next level, but it is also a system that can address social needs, to allow family farms smaller ones succeed instead of being absorbed by large industrial agribusinesses. Because it integrates blockchain technology and IoT in its platform, it can offer everything that the agricultural ecosystem requires in a single application.

It is based on intelligent contracts that guarantee compliance with product quality, transport and distribution requirements, while providing smooth and safe transactions without cash. For smaller producers, this means immediate payment once the contract conditions have been met. The platform reduces the need for regional purchasing intermediaries, since the smart contract also guarantees that jurisdictional regulations are complied with before making payments.

In fact, Pavo tracks every step of the seed process until delivery, including spray protocols, labor costs, as well as shipping conditions.

Any changes are tracked with respect to the original contracts, and all this information can be analyzed by the producers who can then calibrate any condition in each process. It is the kind of technology that has the potential to help farmers intensify food production without expanding land use or destroying the livelihoods of small farmers, which is vital for Brazil and other LAC countries.

Team from Pavo will participate in Blockspot Blockchain and Cryptoeconomic Conference in São Paulo on May 28 and 29. Mr. Cakmak will present at the conference on May 28 at 14:30. Pavo is currently in the second phase of his public presale, which continues until August 6, 2018, with a bonus of 33%. Your main ICO begins on August 7 and will continue until September 15, with decreasing bonuses available.
