Abstract: Agricultural markets often suffer from delayed payments, lack of transparency, and dependency on intermediaries, which significantly reduces farmers’ profit margins. This paper presents a blockchain-based tokenization framework that converts agricultural produce into digital tokens using smart contracts deployed on the Ethereum blockchain. Each token represents a verified quantity of produce and enables direct peer-to-peer transactions between farmers and buyers. The system was implemented using Solidity smart contracts deployed through Remix IDE and tested on a local Ethereum environment using Ganache. Experimental results demonstrate improved transparency, faster transaction settlement, and secure ownership transfer compared to traditional agricultural trading systems.
