Grains in the Bank
We have created a Grainbank that enables farmers to convert their grains into tradable digital assets, avail credit against those assets through partner NBFCs and Banks, and get better prices for their produce.
The Ergos Grainbank platform empowers farmers by providing them with a choice on when, how much quantity and at what price they want to sell their produce, thus maximising their income.

CHALLENGES FACED BY FARMERS
Most of the warehouses are currently located close to mandis in larger towns. Moreover, they primarily cater to larger farmers or traders who can afford the logistics cost owing to the large quantities of grains being dealt with.
However, in a country where most of the farmers produce less than Rs. 1 lakh worth of grains in a year, these services are not a value add for most of these farmers. As a result, a majority of these farmers do not get access to institutional services. This leads to massive loss of produce due to poor storage and also results in exploitation of farmers in the hands of the traders, because farmers need immediate liquidity to cater to their expenses and credit repayments.
