Blockchain in Indian Agriculture to Disrupt the Food Supply Chain

The Supply chain was always a complex task to manage the integrity, accountability, traceability, and quality of the products. The food supply chain is more important than any other supply chain. India is the second largest producer of fruits and vegetables in the world succeeding China. Although having a low level of processing, the quality of the final produced goods is not properly matched. Due to the lack of proper management in the food supply chain, many unauthorized small food organizations produce false products that are harmful to health. The modern supply chain is useful to prevent potential fraud a guarantees trade compliance. Blockchain technology solves the problem of complexity in the food supply chain. Blockchain uses a decentralized ledger to store the information, and this information cannot be changed or modified. Blockchain technology provides traceability, transparency, trust, and an immutable decentralized ledger to store data. In the existing blockchain based models, database consumption is very high. So, the proposed model introduces the concept of two parallel blockchain servers to optimize database usage.
