Overview
zCapital is an agro-lending marketplace where Zenvus farmers, lenders and investors come together. Using data from Zenvus products, a farmer develops a short Business Plan which presents opportunities in the farm. Once the farmer publishes it in the portal, the Zenvus team will validate the claims using independent Zenvus data. Afterwards, the plan and the independent data are made available for the lenders. The farmer and the lenders complete all monetary transactions outside Zenvus.
