Abstract

The efficiency, effectiveness, and validity of many crucial criteria in the food and agricultural supply chain are receiving increasing attention as a result of globalized industrial and agricultural production. There is a great demand for effective traceability solutions that serve as crucial quality management tools to guarantee enough product safety throughout the agricultural supply chain due to the rising incidence of food safety and corruption risks. Blockchain is a cutting-edge technical approach that delivers a ground-breaking outcome for commodity traceability in food supply chains and agriculture. Today's agricultural supply chains are intricate ecosystems with many different players, making it challenging to validate a number of important needs, particularly with regard to the nation of initial origin, crop growth stages, compliance with quality standards, and yield monitoring. In order to track crop prices and ensure traceability, This study presents a technique that successfully handles business operations along the agricultural supply chain while levitating the blockchain. The recommended framework solution eliminates the need for intermediaries and centralized authority that can be relied upon while also providing records of the transactions, boosting effective science and safety with a high degree of dependability and integrity. With links to a decentralized network, all transactions are tracked and subsequently maintained in the blockchain’s immutable ledger, providing a high level of traceability and transparency in the supply chain ecosystem in a reliable, dependable, and efficient manner.
