Write proposals that the DAO can review, vote on, and execute.
Kokonut proposals are not informal requests. They are the bridge between community intent and executable DAO action: treasury disbursements, farm launches, Guild bounties, Framework upgrades, partnerships, token recognition, and operational commitments. Use this page when you already know what you want to propose and need the correct structure. If you are still learning how governance works, start with the Governance Framework.Every template below follows the ten required fields used across Kokonut governance.
These templates are governance tools, not legal, tax, financial, or investment advice. If a proposal creates legal obligations, external contracts, compliance exposure, or long-term partnership commitments, include appropriate review before asking the DAO to vote.
Proposal flow at a glance
| Step | What happens | Minimum timing | Where it happens |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1. Choose a template | Select the correct proposal type and copy the template | Before drafting | This page |
| 2. Draft proposal | Fill every required section with concrete details | Day 0 | Kokonut Forum / workspace |
| 3. Review window | Members and Guilds comment, challenge assumptions, and request edits | 5 days minimum | Kokonut Forum / workspace |
| 4. Sponsor proposal | A proposal-authorized person or Guild Steward advances the proposal | After drafting window | Kokonut Forum → DAOHaus if on-chain |
| 5. Vote | DAO members vote according to the proposal type | 5 days minimum | DAOHaus for treasury / on-chain actions |
| 6. Grace period | Members can rage-quit before execution if they disagree | After passed on-chain vote | Moloch DAO flow |
| 7. Execute and report | Proposal team completes milestones and reports success metrics | After execution | Guilds, DAO, Data Hub, docs |
Treasury-moving, token-minting, Loot-awarding, membership, DAO-parameter, or on-chain execution proposals should go to DAOHaus. Coordination-only decisions can remain in the forum if they do not require DAO execution.
Choose the right template
Farm Funding
Request DAO treasury funding for a new syntropic farm, farm expansion, infrastructure buildout, or farm phase upgrade.
Guild Bounty
Request funding for scoped work completed by contributors through a Guild: code, research, MRV, docs, design, finance, governance, or operations.
Framework Upgrade
Propose a change to Kokonut’s schemas, MRV methodology, governance parameters, development phases, or impact framework.
Partnership
Formalize a relationship with an external organization, funder, protocol, research institution, cooperative, or ecosystem partner.
| If your proposal mainly asks for… | Use this template | Naming convention | Primary reviewer |
|---|---|---|---|
| Capital for land, crops, infrastructure, operators, or farm expansion | Farm Funding | KDP-N | Impact Guild + DAO |
| Payment for scoped contributor work | Guild Bounty | KBP-N | Issuing Guild |
| A change to schemas, MRV, APIs, governance rules, or Framework docs | Framework Upgrade | KFP-N | Technology Guild / Governance Guild / Impact Guild |
| A formal external relationship, data-sharing agreement, co-funding, or brand relationship | Partnership | KPP-N | Community & Partnerships Guild |
Proposal numbers are assigned when the Governance Guild registers the draft. Do not self-assign the final number before your draft is posted and logged.
Universal proposal checklist
Before you submit any proposal, make sure it answers the reviewer’s real questions.| Reviewer question | Your proposal must answer |
|---|---|
| What exactly are we approving? | Name the action, amount, scope, deliverables, responsible people, and timeline. |
| Why should this happen now? | Explain the problem, opportunity, dependency, or risk that makes the proposal timely. |
| Who is accountable? | List authors, team members, Guilds, operators, reviewers, and wallet addresses where relevant. |
| What does the DAO pay for or commit to? | Include treasury amount, token effect, brand use, technical work, data access, or legal commitment. |
| What proves success? | Define measurable milestones, acceptance criteria, reporting cadence, and evidence sources. |
| What could go wrong? | Include risks, assumptions, out-of-scope items, revocation conditions, and dispute paths. |
| What happens after the vote? | Add concrete next steps, owners, deadlines, and reporting obligations. |
Vague proposals are expensive for the DAO to review. If your proposal cannot define its budget, success metrics, responsible team, acceptance criteria, and next step, it should stay in drafting.
The ten required fields
Every Kokonut proposal uses the same ten-field base structure.| Field | Purpose |
|---|---|
| A. Proposal Name | Makes the proposal easy to reference and track. |
| B. Proposal Author(s) | Identifies who is asking and who can answer questions. |
| C. Proposal Team | Name the people responsible for execution and review. |
| D. Draft Start Date | Starts the minimum 5-day drafting window. |
| E. Proposal Description | Explains exactly what is being approved. |
| F. Mission Alignment | Connects the proposal to Kokonut’s purpose, farms, Framework, Guilds, or DAO. |
| G. Brand Usage | Clarifies whether Kokonut identity, name, assets, or public channels are involved. |
| H. Financial Implications | Shows treasury impact, payment schedule, ongoing costs, or financial return. |
| I. Success Metrics | Defines how completion and impact will be judged. |
| J. Next Steps | Converts approval into action with owners and deadlines. |
What makes a proposal passable
| Weak proposal | Strong proposal |
|---|---|
| ”Fund our farm." | "Disburse $18,000 in three milestones to install irrigation, prepare 2,000 m² of beds, and plant short-cycle crops by a specific date." |
| "Build an MRV tool." | "Pay $1,500 for an MRV agent proof of concept that converts three farm events into valid payloads and submits test records." |
| "Partner with this project." | "Approve a 12-month co-funding partnership with named deliverables, value exchange, revocation conditions, and quarterly check-ins." |
| "Improve the Framework." | "Add an optional drone_imagery_cid field to the MRV schema with a non-breaking migration plan and docs PR deadline.” |
Farm Funding Proposal
Use this template for new farm launches, farm expansions, infrastructure upgrades, or major farm phase transitions. Farm funding proposals are highly sensitive because they move treasury capital into real-world operations. They should include land details, operator accountability, budget, disbursement milestones, MRV commitments, SDG alignment, and revenue assumptions.# [PROPOSAL NAME]

|---|---|---|
| Farm Funding | Create or update Farm Registry / Data Hub records | Milestone reports, MRV events, harvest, and impact data |
| Guild Bounty | Confirm contributor, payment wallet, and work plan | Deliverable reviews, Guild Points, final handoff |
| Framework Upgrade | Open implementation and documentation PRs | Migration status, validation checks, operator support |
| Partnership | Confirm written acknowledgment or agreement | Quarterly check-ins, value exchange updates, and renewal review |
If a passed proposal cannot be executed as written, post an update immediately. Material changes to the budget, scope, timeline, or obligations may require an amended proposal.
