This digitization allows formal registration with B3 as a movable asset,\u201d<\/strong> Martins explained.<\/p>\n<p>The monitoring also allows each cow to be substituted by another if the animal dies, with the loan being valid as long as there is 120% collateralization.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cThe transaction gives farmers access to credit with more attractive pricing and higher limits. We want to connect farmers and financial institutions through a new alternative,\u201d<\/strong> he stated.<\/p>\n<p>Cowmed provides solutions for live herd monitoring, helping farmers receive heat alerts, identify health changes, and track feeding trends. At the time of writing, it serves over 1,400 farms, with 900K+ cows connected to its network, which uses smart collars to monitor each animal\u2019s data.<\/p>\n<p>Martins expects up to 20% of its monitored herd to be involved in loan transactions in the next 2 years, with a credit volume of $78.5 million.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/from-pasture-to-blockchain-how-tokenized-cows-are-revolutionizing-agricultural-finance-in-brazil\/\">Source link <\/a><br \/>\n<br \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(Originally posted on : Bitcoin News ) Key Takeaways A Brazilian farm secured a $20K loan by tokenizing ten cows, unlocking better credit options for agriculture.
