Uber das Colheitas: Farm Transport Platform
a minha ideia é: Um “Uber das colheitas” — uma plataforma simples (app ou até via SMS/WhatsApp) que liga diretamente o agricultor que tem produto a perder a um transportador disponível (mota, carrinha, camião) para escoar rapidamente a colheita até ao mercado ou comprador. O lucro está na comissão por cada frete realizado. Resolves um problema real (40% de perdas de tomate, cenoura, etc.) com uma execução leve: não precisas de terras, nem armazéns, nem produto. Só precisas de organizar o encon
