Overview

FoodWise is a decentralized, Web3-based platform designed to promote sustainable food production, management, and consumption globally. It addresses critical issues such as environmental degradation, climate change, and the lack of transparency and traceability in the food supply chain. By leveraging blockchain technology, decentralized storage (IPFS), NFTs, and a native token economy (FoodTokens), FoodWise enhances transparency, fosters global collaboration, and incentivizes sustainable practices.

Features

• Immutable Records: Track and verify the entire food supply chain on the blockchain, ensuring transparency and trust.
• Decentralized Knowledge Sharing: Share and access sustainable practices through a decentralized, peer-to-peer network.
• Digital Certifications: Issue and verify certifications for sustainable practices using NFTs.
• Community-Governed DAO: Participate in governance decisions that shape the platform's future direction.
• FoodTokens Economy: Earn and use FoodTokens to incentivize and reward sustainable actions.

Technology Stack

• Blockchain: For recording and verifying transactions.
• IPFS: Decentralized storage for data and documents.
• NFTs: For digital certifications and ownership proof.
• Smart Contracts: For automating platform operations and governance.
• Web3.js: For interacting with the Ethereum blockchain.
• React.js: Frontend framework for building the user interface.
