Lack of transparency is a significant challenge in the agriculture industry. Consumers and farmers often have limited information about market prices, demand, and product availability. A complex network of middlemen can increase costs and complicate transactions. Blockchain technology can connect consumers and farmers directly, eliminating the need for intermediaries. All data is recorded on the blockchain, accessible to everyone. Consumers can easily view product availability in their area. This helps prevent food fraud, false labeling, and the exploitation of middlemen.
Blockchain technology enables consumers to purchase food from anywhere, knowing the exact harvest time and origin. Food value chains can enhance their competitiveness by collaborating on projects that involve producers, processors, marketers, food service companies, retailers, and support groups like shippers, researchers, and suppliers.
A value chain is a strategic alliance between interconnected companies that collaborate to enhance value for end consumers, resulting in a collective competitive advantage. Value chains are characterized by collaboration, market orientation, and efficiency. Different businesses work together to develop, produce, and market products and services effectively. This allows companies to meet market demands through efficient production, processing, and marketing aligned with consumer preferences.
Blockchain is emerging as a powerful solution for supply chain management, where transparency and authenticity are increasingly valued. Its ability to provide a verifiable record of every transaction and real-time tracking of inventory items makes it ideal for this application. Blockchain fosters a level of trust and transparency previously unattainable in supply chain management.
