Dec. 25, 2025 /Mpelembe Media/ — Citiesabc Impakt is a sophisticated Agriculture-as-a-Service platform developed by Dinis Guarda and the Ztudium Group. The initiative establishes a digital infrastructure designed to support farmers and agribusinesses through artificial intelligence, blockchain, and IoT sensors. By providing a verified digital identity and financial tools, the platform seeks to improve market access and sustainability in regions such as India, Indonesia, and Africa. The system addresses critical issues like climate volatility and financial exclusion by offering crop monitoring, price forecasting, and secure data ownership. Ultimately, the project aims to foster global food security and economic resilience through high-tech, human-centric solutions.
Citiesabc Impakt empowers global farmers by providing a robust digital infrastructure that integrates verified digital identity and sovereign artificial intelligence to address systemic challenges like fragmented markets and limited financial access.
The platform’s empowerment strategy focuses on several key technological pillars:
Digital Identity and Data Ownership
Verified Farmer ID (iDNA): The platform provides farmers with a verified Digital Farmer ID (iDNA), which serves as a foundation for trust within the agricultural ecosystem.
Data Sovereignty: It establishes a data ownership framework, ensuring that farmers retain control over their information rather than being treated as mere data points.
Blockchain Integration: Using Blocksdna technology, the platform manages blockchain-based identity, payments, and carbon traceability, allowing farmers to participate in ESG frameworks and sustainability incentives.
AI-Driven Intelligence and Support
Decision Intelligence: Powered by proprietary AI.DNA technology, the platform provides “sovereign AI” that offers farmers decision intelligence to improve productivity and resilience.
Predictive Tools: AI is used to deliver crop advisory services, weather intelligence, pest detection, and price forecasting, helping farmers mitigate risks related to climate volatility.
Localised Support: To ensure accessibility, AI.DNA Agro Chatbots provide real-time support in local languages, helping farmers navigate technical and community networks.
Financial and Market Inclusion
Access to Capital: By providing a verified identity and trusted data, the platform connects farmers directly to financial institutions for micro-loans, insurance, and subsidies.
Market Connectivity: The B2B2C2G model links farmers directly with global markets, cooperatives, and governments, reducing the barriers created by fragmented supply chains.
Ultimately, this digital infrastructure is designed to be modular and replicable, allowing it to scale across different countries, crops, and regulatory environments to foster long-term human and environmental value.
Analogy: Providing this digital infrastructure is like giving a farmer a master key that not only unlocks the doors to global banks and markets but also comes with a personal, expert advisor that speaks their language and understands their specific soil.
Artificial Intelligence (AI.DNA): The platform utilizes proprietary sovereign AI and decision intelligence to empower the agricultural ecosystem. This technology powers specific tools like AI.DNA Agro Chatbots for local-language support, as well as predictive systems for crop advisory, weather intelligence, pest detection, and price forecasting.
Digital Identity (iDNA): A central component of the architecture is the verified Digital Farmer ID (iDNA). This provides a data ownership framework, ensuring that farmers are recognised as individuals with control over their information rather than mere data points.
Blockchain (Blocksdna): This technology facilitates blockchain-based identity, payments, and carbon traceability. It is essential for managing integrated financial services, such as digital wallets and subsidies, while linking farming activities to ESG frameworks and sustainability incentives.
Internet of Things (IoT) and Sensor Integration: The architecture incorporates hardware for real-time environmental monitoring, including drones, weather stations, and sensors for soil and crop monitoring,
Data Analytics and Digital Twins: The platform uses data analytics to generate real-time dashboards and digital twins. These tools allow governments and cooperatives to monitor food security and climate resilience without compromising data sovereignty.
Analogy: Think of the Citiesabc Impakt architecture as a smart city’s central nervous system transplanted onto a farm: the IoT sensors act as the eyes and ears, the AI.DNA is the brain making decisions, and the blockchain is the secure, unchangeable memory that keeps a perfect record of every transaction and harvest.
Citiesabc Impakt provides a suite of integrated financial services designed to address the systemic challenge of limited access to finance for global farmers.
The specific financial services and tools offered include:
Digital Wallets and Payments: The platform features integrated wallets and payment systems. These are powered by Blocksdna technology, which facilitates blockchain-based payments and traceability.
Micro-loans and Capital: Farmers are provided with access to micro-loans and capital at scale. The platform’s B2B2C2G model connects farmers directly with financial institutions that can leverage the trusted intelligence provided by the platform to offer credit.
Insurance: The architecture includes insurance services, enabling insurers to offer coverage by leveraging verified farmer data.
Subsidies: The platform facilitates the distribution of subsidies, assisting governments in executing food-security and financial aid policies more effectively.
Sustainability Incentives: Financial rewards are linked to environmental impact through sustainability and carbon tracking, which are tied to specific incentives and ESG frameworks.
These services are underpinned by the verified Digital Farmer ID (iDNA) and a data ownership framework, which establishes the necessary trust for financial institutions and insurers to serve the agricultural ecosystem efficiently.
Analogy: This system acts as a digital financial passport: once a farmer’s identity and productivity are verified by the platform, it automatically opens doors to banks, insurers, and government aid that were previously locked or inaccessible.
Citiesabc Impakt has selected the following specific global regions for its initial platform deployment:
India,
Indonesia,
Africa
These regions were chosen because they are areas where digital ID transformation and digital inclusion are viewed as critical economic priorities. The deployment in India also focuses on advancing Natural Farming initiatives.
While these are the initial target areas, the platform’s architecture is modular and replicable, allowing it to be scaled across various other countries, crops, and regulatory environments in the future,.
Analogy: Launching in these specific regions is like planting pioneer crops in the most nutrient-needy soil; once the system takes root and proves its resilience there, it can be easily transplanted to any other environment across the globe.
