Abstract
Computing technology solutions are increasingly being applied to agricultural product supply chains. Information sharing and analytics, market access, finance access and product tracking are the common applications developed in smart agriculture systems. Normally, agriculture product data is stored in a centralized database managed by government agencies and the integrity of data is not audited properly. In collaborative digital transaction, data validity is the main concern in product supply chain. This article proposes a disruptive approach in managing agriculture product supply chain. The integration of digital information management platform and Blockchain technology is applied in developing a secured distributed ledger for managing the transaction flows of agriculture product chain. The integrated model is presented in structured and formal approach. The Blockchain platform and its distributed ledger framework are discussed in details. With this condition, all information regarding to agriculture product are trusted, low risk of fraud, removes marketing overhead and time saving.
