So, wseeds solution offer:

A. Our own organic products from our sustainable crops leveraged by our technology.

B. Smart contracts between wseeds, customers, farmers and distributors through Cardano.

C. Multisensor IoT device (AgroBox) integrated with our own application to monitor and store data about the environmental crop conditions and make alerts in real time according to crop conditions variations. With the data stored in the Blockchain and AI models we will be able to anticipate environmental conditions on crops and take actions to improve efficiency and profitability of the agrosystem.

D. Data and monitoring to insurance companies to guarantee and reduce risks related to crops.

E. Real-time interaction between consumers and crops offering the chance to choose their agriculture products

It is not a secret that Data is one of the key components of the 4th industrial revolution we are currently witnessing. In this context, the huge advantages of our idea are:

A. We make it data-centered from the beginning. We created a low-cost multi-sensor device to standardize data measurements and collection from day-one which will make our future decisions centered on evidence extracted from our data. The more our idea grows, the more data we collect and the more value we can exploit.

B. In an initial stage, our data will serve to monitor crop environmental variables and connect the user to their investment in a more meaningful way. This will incentivize investment and engagement with our app.

C. In the medium term, we will use the data collected from our sensors to automate the control of environmental variables with irrigation systems for humidity, fans & extractors for temperature and artificial lights for luminosity.

D. In the long term, we will use our data to leverage productivity with a variety of AI-powered models ranging from yield optimization with the control of environmental variables, yield prediction at early stages of the crop, early disease identification in plants, to name a few.

Our value idea has 2 fundamental inputs and outputs. The inputs that we need to start the process at the Blockchain ecosystem are client's investment capital and client's interest product information. So, when we have these requirements we can make all the smart contracts, investments and processes for the crop production. Finally, we obtain an ecological food product that can be delivered to local clients or sold to markets and distributors to obtain return percentage capital for the client.

¿How do we want to execute our project? (Roadmap)

For our execution plan we set some Objectives and Key Results (OKR) thinking in our development phases:

1. Design and produce AgroBox Basic, AgroBox Terra, AgroBox Aqua

a. Design, implement and test the sensors and electronic components of the Agroboxes. (3 months)

b. Design and produce the Agrobox shell to protect the internal components. (6 months)

c. Program and calibrate more than 15 different IoT sensors. (9 months)

d. Standardize and implement Agrobox manufacture processes. (12 Months)

2. Develop Wseeds Platform IoT data control and Management, Blockchain integrity, Business data management

a. Design, develop and debug wseeds user front end with mockups and functionalities ideas (3 months)

b. Design, develop and debug Wseeds user back end. (6 months)

c. Integrate and test blockchain applications. (12 Months)

3. Develop AgroLab

a. Construct AgroLab infrastructure. (3 months)

b. Implement experimental hydroponic and raised-bed crops. (6 months)

c. Automate and test AgroLab components.

4. Implement Business model y marketing strategy

a. Design & construct a solid business model. (3 months)

b. Create video-publicity for the project. (6 months)

b. Engage with users in social apps. (12 Months)

In the same way, we write the indicators metrics for every OKR:

Key Performance Metrics (KPIs)

1. Number of AgroBoxes (Expected 3 types)

a. Do electronic components work? (Expected yes)

b. Does the shell protect the electronic components? (Expected yes)

c. Number of sensors programmed and calibrated. (Expected 15)

d. Number non-manually manufactured AgroBoxes (Expected 8)

2. Do we have a working Wseeds platform? (Expected Yes)

a. Can the user connect to the Wseeds platform (Expected Yes)

b. Number of bugs in the backend. (Expected 0)

c. Number of blockchain applications integrated into the app. (Expected 3)

3. Do we have a working AgroLab? (Expected yes)

a. Is the AgroLab infrastructure working properly. (Expected yes)

b. How many crops of each type were implemented. (Expected 20, 20)

c. How many components were automated. (Expected 5)

4. How many people did we reach with our marketing campaign (Expected 1000)

a. How many videos did we create. (Expected 3)

b. How many people did we reach. (Expected 1000)

¿What do we expect from the project?

Agrobox

We hope to improve and develop new agroboxes according to the needs of our agricultural production systems. We expect to develop AgroBox Basic, AgroBox Terra and AgroBox Aqua.

Wseeds Platform

For the interaction that we want to create between the clients and wseeds we want to improve the platform to have different sections in the wseeds app according to the role that you have in the process. So, we expect to have a customers section and a company section in the same app.

AgroLab

We hope to have an 10m2 automated greenhouse for sustainable agricultural production that has an integrated agrobox system for obtaining, recording and analyzing environmental and crop information through the wseeds platform. [See greenhouse images 1 - 6]

Market

Our principal market will be people (customers) who care about sustainable agriculture at their food-bought times.Also, we want to make business partners with some small and medium farmers in order to look for ways to improve the agricultural production systems of the region. So, we expect to establish business relationships with at least 1000 clients and 10 small and/or medium farmers.
