Agro-commodities
Subtype
Description
These tokens represent literal commodities such as coffee, cacao, or grains sourced from regenerative or sustainable producers. Tokenization supports traceability and efficient settlement.
Example
LandX is a real-world asset protocol that tokenizes the future yields of agro-commodities such as soy, corn, rice, and wheat, enabling decentralized exposure to agricultural production. Through its xToken model, LandX allows farmers to receive upfront capital by committing a portion of their crop yields, which are secured via legal agreements and liens on the land. These commitments are tokenized into fully backed ERC-20 xTokens (e.g., xWHEAT, xSOY), which, when staked, generate cTokens representing the annual commodity yield. The ecological dimension emerges through the protocol’s long-term engagement with land-based agricultural systems and its potential to reward regenerative or climate-resilient farming practices via yield-linked incentives.
