# Kokonut Network; Help us Build an Eco-Friendly Perpetual Fund
### Personal Introduction
***Wouldn’t it be nice to create a perpetual protocol backed by natural assets unrelated to the crypto market, and eco-friendly and regenerative?***
I’m [Wasabi](https://link3.to/wasabinetwork), the founder of Kokonut Network. We are building a bridge to connect web3 and agriculture. We are creating a blockchain-based cooperative to develop and manage a network of coconut farms.
Our main goal is to address the worldwide lack of funding for agricultural projects. We help farmers get the funds they need while creating opportunities for web3 communities by giving them access to perpetual natural assets.

### TL;DR
Kokonut Network provides blockchain governance and open-source accounting to the agricultural industry. Our mission is to promote, organize, fund, and manage coconut farms. We collect funds from the community through the Kokonut DAO framework for decision-making and allocating treasury funds.
Kokonut Network can establish a lifetime partnership with its members through the Kokonut DAO by using a formula of Agriculture, Blockchain, Web3, Perfect Soil, and Weather. This opportunity does not have an expiration date, as coconut trees are replanted once they stop bearing fruits.

### Kokonut SMART criteria for Kokonut V1 1st Planting Phase
- **_Specific_** – target a specific area for improvement.
- **_Measurable_** – quantify or at least suggest an indicator of progress.
- **_Assignable_** – specify who will do it.
- **_Realistic_** – state what results can realistically be achieved, given available resources.
- **_Time-related_** – specify when the result(s) can be achieved.
**S** = Lack of funding for smallholder-based agriculture projects.
**M** = 6,000 plants coconut tree farm.
**A** = Approximately 1,000 farmers would benefit from the development of this project.
**R** = We can create a stable, eco-friendly asset that will bring value to the community for the next 20 years, establishing a circular economy system for farmers and the entire community.
**T** = We have already secured land, planting permits, and support from the local government. Our team is prepared to complete the entire planting program within 8 months. Afterward, we will care for the trees until they are fully mature, which takes approximately three years until they start bearing fruit.

### Kokonut Five Dimensions of Impact
1. **WHAT** – The objective is to test our DAO thesis by building and developing a coconut plantation under the DAO model, which intersects real-life communities, web3 communities, and global culture. The outcome of this investment will create a perpetual asset that will improve people's lives in every aspect.
2. **WHO** – The families who own the land where the project will be developed are underserved in every aspect, including education, finances, health, and opportunities. In Latin America, jobs and the economy mainly function in big cities, and the countryside is typically marginalized or taken advantage of by large corporations. A blockchain-based co-op can help remove many of these barriers.
3. **HOW MUCH** – Approximately 60 families own the land, and the project will create 1,000 direct and indirect jobs. This will be life-changing for everyone involved, as it will provide opportunities and value for at least 20 years.
4. **CONTRIBUTION** – Underserved individuals depend on these types of projects and new concepts based on blockchain that open doors to new paradigms and possibilities. The current system's criteria and entry-level are very high, making it difficult for those who cannot meet their standards.
5. **RISK** – We have several fail safes in place, such as agricultural insurance, open-source cloud accounting systems, government and community oversight, and technical support from all government agencies involved in the project framework.

# Major Updates since GR15 & Alpha Rounds
### **Kokonut Partners with the Department of Agriculture**
Right after GR15, we started working on one of our biggest achievements so far; we set ourselves on a journey to establish a relationship with the highest authority in our Industry, [**“The Department of Agriculture”**](https://agricultura.gob.do/). On December 2022, they agreed to visit our land after an initial set of meetings and pre-screenings in their headquarters.
They were super happy with the local community of farmers, and the fact that young people are working to bring a project of this magnitude to life. Fast\-forward to 2023 we're happy to announce the partnership is a go, and we will have access to a wide range of perks and benefits. Read the announcement [here](https://paragraph.xyz/@kokonut/kokonut-network-partners-with-the-department-of-agriculture).

### **DAO Framework Upgrade**
Fractional ownership of Coconut Trees is coming to Kokonut DAO, now shares are ERC-20 allowing members to surpass the actual limitation of whole shares. This lowers the barrier to joining the DAO and further improves decentralization.
You can basically own a 1/2 of a Coconut Tree 🌴, learn more about DAOHaus V3 [here](https://daohaus.mirror.xyz/bcJCN2H7vow6xRE977A4pTWUNR0vqrgTscFLtu2ttn8).

## Why coconuts? Zero Waste Circular By Default Crop.
Coconut is the most cultivated and vital palm tree in the world, as it is the main source of vegetable fat. It is one of the plants that provide a wide variety of products and by-products, serving as a primary source of food, drinks, and shelter for animals.
### **Coconut products market outlook**
The coconut products market size was valued at $11.5 billion in 2018 and is estimated to reach $31.1 billion by 2026, registering a CAGR of 13.6% from 2019 to 2026. In 2018, the coconut oil segment accounted for more than half of the total coconut products market share.
Coconut is a versatile fruit with many health benefits. Its derivatives, such as coconut oil, water, milk, desiccated coconut, coir, and copra, are used in the food, beverage, cosmetic, and personal care industries.

### Kokonut V1
Our first plantation will yield 18 million coconuts annually, enabling us to generate multiple revenue streams in the food, health, and automotive industries.
This project will benefit the entire society of the Municipality of Las Salinas, Barahona Province, Dominican Republic. The coconut plants will be planted 7.5 × 7\.5 meters apart, equating to ninety-six (96) plants per acre of land, or 60,000 plants across the six hundred and twenty (620) Acres of land. This variety of coconut yields approximately three hundred (300) fruits per plant, resulting in an annual yield of 18,000,000 units. The Kokonut DAO treasury will receive 100% of the profits.

## **Kokonut DAO**
***The DAO is the core vehicle for all fundraising, rewards distributions, and governance decisions.***
Kokonut Network is a platform built by and for people. At its core, Kokonut DAO seeks to empower anyone who adds value to the Kokonut Network ecosystem, regardless of their social status or prior accomplishments.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Operating as a cooperative, profits generated by the network are distributed among the members of the DAO or reinvested in the network to fund its ongoing operations.

## **Our Vision**
Kokonut Network was created to reduce the obstacles to agricultural development, and rural project funding, and democratize investment in real-world projects. We will use blockchain technology to establish multiple plantations across the country, providing advantages to the global crypto communities and everyone in the network.

### **What makes us different?**
Many DAOs have great ideas, copywriting, and marketing, but without a solid business model. Unfortunately, many of these projects are rug-pulled or abandoned by users due to a lack of quality products.
Kokonut Network has a distinct approach. Rather than establishing our proposal or business plan by taking advantage of our users, and attempting to get them to purchase some non-backed token, we have created a resilient system over time. It is backed by coconut plants on our land and has a DAO for governance, funds allocation, and rewards sharing.
