Here you have an interview from The FoodCoin Ecosystem, and one of the manufacturers they have partnered up with:
Let us talk about FoodCoin. This is a blockchain project for farmers and small producers. Have you heard about blockchain before, or how did you come to this?
When I first learned about blockchain, I was in Canada. It was in 2014, I was coaching a group of juniors. That was the first time I came in contact with blockchain, bitcoin and all the cryptocurrencies. At that time, it was hard to figure out how those things work, but it then got me interested, and I saw an alternative to the system we have now, and I hope this thing will work out over the next two years. The thing I really like in the idea is that no one is really in control, and we have no fear of being monitored in the system. We actually have a few people in control who can control and decide how much money there is in circulations, how expensive the money is or how cheap the money is, will our savings be worth, or they are going to be worthless. On the other hand, a decentralized system is not as easy. This is all linked together: it got us from the food to the financial system, because, in the end, we as consumers can only decide what we buy from what we see on the shelf. But we cannot decide what goes to the shelf. This is more a matter of finance, because if someone comes up with the idea and says: "Oh, I have this great food, I want to sell it", if no one finances this project, it won't realize, will never come into being, and we will never know about it.
