E-FARMER Agriculture and Rural Development Using Block Chain Technology

Abstract

The efficiency, validity, and health of many essential criteria in the food and agricultural supply chain are receiving more attention as a result of the globalisation of industrial and agricultural production. Due to the increasing risks to food safety and corruption, there is a great need for effective traceability solutions. These solutions serve as crucial quality management tools, guaranteeing the safety of the products across the agricultural supply chain. Block chain is a cutting-edge technological approach that yields groundbreaking results for commodity traceability in food supply chains and agriculture. Today's agricultural supply chains are intricate ecosystems that involve a number of stakeholders, making it challenging to validate a number of important needs, mostly related to yield monitoring, crop growth stages, compliance with quality standards, and the nation of first origin. In order to manage crop prices and traceability, this study suggests a system that levitates the block chain and efficiently executes business operations across the agricultural supply chain. The suggested framework method improves effective science and safety with high integrity and dependability by doing away with the necessity for intermediaries, centralised authorities, and records of the transactions. All transactions are first recorded, after which they are kept in the immutable ledger of the block chain and connected to a decentralised network. This ensures a robust, dependable, and effective supply chain ecosystem with a high degree of traceability and transparency.
