Brazil’s B3 stock exchange has reportedly backed a loan with tokenized dairy cows, marking a new use case for livestock as collateral. According to Cointelegraph, the transaction involved a loan of 100,000 Brazilian reais secured by 10 dairy cows from Fazenda Engenho Velho in the southern Brazilian state of Paraná. The cows were valued at about 120,000 Brazilian reais, and the deal was structured by Brazilian investment fund Target FIDC, according to CNN Brasil.
According to Cointelegraph, each cow received a unique digital token linked to an encrypted digital identity, while AI-powered smart collars from agriculture tech company Cowmed monitor each animal’s health and reduce the need for physical inspections. The arrangement is presented as a way for livestock farmers to expand access to credit by using cattle as collateral. Cowmed said it currently monitors around 100,000 dairy cows across 1,000 Brazilian farms. Cointelegraph has approached B3 for comment.
