Projects must be at least 3 months old. Newer projects should establish themselves and submit to the next round.
The provided information is insufficient to determine the age of the project. There is no mention of the project start date.
The Grant must be primarily focused on climate solutions (the group may do other work but the grant proposal should be directly related to climate solutions). The proposal should explicitly outline how this project will help reduce GHGs or is an important core infrastructure for web3 climate solutions.
The project's description indicates that it is focused on supporting and financing on-farm projects that combine research and innovation with indigenous knowledge and practices, potentially reducing GHGs through sustainable agricultural methods.
Grantees who received funding in previous rounds should report on project progress since GR15 or the Alpha round. We understand that some projects may have less progress given the timing of Alpha round disbursements. This will ensure accountability to supporters and also help encourage contributors by showing what you’ve been accomplishing.
There is no information provided regarding whether Agrii DAO has received funding in previous rounds nor reports of progress; hence, it's unclear if this requirement is applicable or if progress has been reported.
All returning grantees are expected to update their proposal, in addition to project updates the proposal should include lessons learned from previous work and how they will use the additional funding from the upcoming round. The updated proposal should indicate how additional funding will help the project meet its goals, and include a rough timeline for the project overall.
It is not clear whether Agrii DAO is a returning grantee and, if so, whether they have updated their proposal with lessons learned and a clear use of additional funds alongside a rough timeline.
There is a general expectation that projects are within the “realm of viability”. Even if a project may be at a very early stage, it still must seem credible to the average person with an understanding of web3 technology and climate solutions. Grantee founders must genuinely intend to build the project, and the project must not broadly be considered an impossibility.
The project involves experienced team members with credible backgrounds that suggest the project's goals are within the realm of viability. The application of blockchain to agriculture, as described, does not appear to be broadly considered an impossibility.
Grantees can be eliminated from consideration in the round if they are found to be encouraging or enabling Sybil attacks or other forms of malicious manipulation of the grants platform or the Gitcoin community.
There is no indication that Agrii DAO has been involved in any form of malicious manipulation or Sybil attacks, but without further evidence, we can only assume good conduct based on the provided information.
