Modified on Tue, 16 Sep at 9:59 AM

Introduction

A Purchase Contract and Sale Contract in AgriChain represent legal agreements that define the terms of a transaction between a buyer and a seller. These contracts include essential details such as:

Commodity name, type, variety, and season
Payment terms and delivery responsibilities
Total tonnage, pick-up, and delivery locations
Other relevant terms and conditions

In AgriChain, contracts are not only created individually but can also be linked to each other to represent the complete supply chain flow—from purchase to sale. Proper linking ensures accountability, clarity, and seamless transaction management.
