In a move that could reshape the global agricultural landscape, AgriDex is setting out to bring the $2.7 trillion agricultural industry onto the blockchain. In this exclusive CryptoSlate interview, Henry Duckworth, CEO and co-founder of AgriDex, unveils his vision for revolutionizing the way agricultural commodities are traded and tracked worldwide.
Fresh off a $5 million pre-seed funding round, AgriDex is leveraging Solana’s high-speed, low-cost blockchain to tokenize crops and streamline agricultural transactions. With promises of 10-40% cost savings per trade and near-instant settlements, AgriDex aims to tackle long-standing issues in the industry, from opaque supply chains to high remittance fees.
Duckworth’s innovative approach goes beyond mere digitization. By minting NFTs for each transaction, AgriDex creates an immutable record of crucial data points, from product origin to shipping details. This enhances transparency and aligns with stringent EU disclosure requirements, potentially opening new markets for farmers worldwide.
In this interview, Duckworth shares insights into AgriDex’s strategic choices, its unique position in the market, and the transformative potential of bringing real-world agricultural assets on-chain.
