Do herd tokens represent legal ownership?+
Yes. Each token corresponds to a titled fractional interest in a specific, identified herd, held by an audited third-party custodian and recorded in a segregated legal registry. The on-chain record mirrors the legal one — it does not replace it. This is the structural difference between Cattle Capital and crypto-native cattle tokens, where tokenized cattle are often not recognized as legal ownership.
How is yield generated and paid?+
Yield comes from production: calf crops, weight gain, and market sales. Net income distributes quarterly, settled on-chain, with a line-item statement per distribution. As a sample reference: Herd 014 distributed 9.2% net yield over the trailing twelve months.
What are the risks?+
Livestock values fluctuate with feed costs, weather, disease, and market prices. Principal is at risk. Distributions depend on production and are not guaranteed. Herd positions are less liquid than public securities; plan on a 12–36 month horizon. Review each herd's disclosure documents before investing.
What happens if animals die or get sick?+
Operators maintain livestock mortality and health insurance at ranch level, with certificates viewable per herd. Health-forecasting models flag risk early, so intervention typically precedes loss. Insurance proceeds flow to token holders pro rata.
Who manages the herds?+
Vetted professional operators with published track records handle feed, veterinary care, breeding, and sales. Each operator's history, payment reliability, and performance index are in the data room before you invest.
Can I sell before the herd cycle ends?+
Herd tokens can be listed on the platform transfer market after the holding period stated in each offering. Settlement is on-chain and takes minutes; finding a buyer depends on market depth. Livestock is a real asset — liquidity is better than a traditional fund, not instant like an ETF.
