The Treasury
“We pay the soil first — fixed at 15% out of the waterfall, residual into trust.”
Before anyone gets paid, expert, supplier and operator costs clear first. Then 15% Platform Development Fee — contractually fixed, paid out of the waterfall, to the operating system. The remainder flows to treasury, then tax. That money goes back into more land, more work, more healing. We’re building a kitty that doesn’t empty.
At most fifteen percent. Paid last. Goes to the soil.
Every project, every year, the platform takes 15%, contractually fixed, paid out of the waterfall, to the operating system.
It’s spent on more farms, more practice changes, more audits. Not bonuses. Not buy-backs.
A kitty that grows is a kitty that survives a tough year.
Most companies pay shareholders first and the planet last. We swapped the order.
When the soil gets paid first — in mechanics, not slogans — the work keeps going when the headlines don’t.
We pay the soil first — fixed at 15% out of the waterfall, residual into trust.
The land heals. The treasury grows. Both compound.
It’s not a slogan. It’s a rule. At most fifteen percent. Paid last. Forever.
Built once. Walked for a hundred years.
Neurath-style civic icons — a hand-drawn jar at top labelled “15%”, a tap pouring into three small paddock icons each sprouting fresh growth; brown ink on cream, gold accent on the tap.
At most fifteen percent. Paid last. Forever.
