What is the #DeFiFARMer Contest All About, How to Participate, and How Will the Winners Be Chosen?

Harvest finance will be holding another contest and is rewarding our humble farmers with $900 of those highly sought after FARM tokens!

No this is not the creativity contest, (although everyone is encouraged to enter that as well) this is a completely different contest focusing only on publishers on Publish0x.

At Harvest Finance we highly value creative minds and want to reward our humble farmers that can provide some entertaining content for the community. So instead of the same old tutorial or walk through we want to do something a little different.

We want you to do some creative writing that highlights anything FARM and is DeFi related.

• Got a cool story about Chad, virgin coders or even the Harvest team?
• Or maybe you have a spooky ghost story that occurred on the farm, share it with us!
• Fiction, non-fiction and everything in between is fair game.

Prizes will be awarded to those writers that  show the most creativity and effort!

The rules for the writing contest are simple. :)

• Submit your entry into the contest between today and the deadline on Friday, 13th of November 2020. EDIT: The deadline has been extended to Monday, 16th of November!
• Videos are also accepted. You can record a LBRY or a Youtube video, embed it into your article on Publish0x, write a short intro to your post, and link to the article from the Youtube video description.
• The article you enter the contest with has to be your own original work. We will not accept copy / pasted, spun or translated submissions.
• When you're done writing the article, publish it in your Publish0x blog and make sure to use the tag DeFiFARMer (without the hashtag, you cannot use hashtags when you tag posts on Publish0x).
• That's it!

The Total Prize Pool is $900 in FARM! Here's how the prizes will be distributed:

Out of the total Prize pool, $850 is reserved for authors, and $50 in FARM is allocated for those users who share news about the contest on Twitter.

🚜 Hold your horses, what even is Harvest Finance?

Many reading this will be familiar with the ins and out of the DeFi craze sweeping the cryptosphere.

Harvest Finance is breaking new ground in this space, and building a truly revolutionary product that will make farming the highest yielding opportunities easier than ever before.

Harvest is not just another forked food project or YFI clone, it is a serious financial tool that utilizes an automated strategy that currently farms and sells Swerve (SWRV) to earn more stablecoins (fUSDT, fDAI, and fUSDC).

• A quick overview of Harvest can be found on the website.

• More details on the APY and farming strategies can be found on the official community wiki.

• If you have any questions, just pop into the Discord server, and the friendly and responsive community will give you a warm welcome.

• And you can follow the Harvest.Finance blog on Publish0x.

We look forward to seeing the community use their creative writing skills to give all our humble farmers an engaging story after a  long day of honest work!
