Abstract:

Livestock farming is vital to the global economy, but faces challenges in traceability, sustainability, and productive efficiency due to a lack of standardization and difficulties in data sharing. With the increasing demand for transparency, blockchain technology emerges as a solution, standing out for its decentralization, immutability, and transparency. This study explores the application of blockchain in livestock farming, developing a blockchain network and a system called eCattle for herd monitoring and management. The research addresses the challenges of current systems and presents a blockchain-based prototype for the sector. The study emphasizes the revolutionary potential of blockchain to strengthen trust and sustainability in the livestock production chain through immutable and auditable records, enhancing data reliability and security.
