Traceability of Fruits and Vegetables Agricultural Products using Blockchain

This study explores the implementation of traceability systems utilizing blockchain technology in the agricultural sector, specifically focusing on fruits and vegetable products. Traceability is crucial for ensuring food safety, quality control, and supply chain transparency. Blockchain offers a decentralized and immutable ledger that enables the recording of every transaction or movement of agricultural products from farm to fork. By leveraging blockchain, stakeholders along the supply chain can access real-time, transparent, and tamper-proof information regarding the origin, cultivation, harvesting, processing, and distribution of fruits and vegetables. This enhances trust between consumers and producers, facilitates regulatory compliance, improves efficiency in recall management, and enables swift identification and resolution of food safety issues. Through case studies and analysis, this report evaluates the benefits, challenges, and future prospects of integrating blockchain-based traceability solutions into the agricultural industry, ultimately aiming to enhance food safety and consumer confidence.
