Abstract

The blockchain technology holds an innovative and secured stand for a novel distributed and translucent business mechanism in businesses. The key goal of this research is to develop a framework for supplying farm produce in a system which monitors the profit of each node and maintains transparency using this technology. It helps the farmers to get the expected fair price of his product. If the price of the commodity of the particular product is increased beyond his/hers registered commission value, then fraud is detected easily in the system and the transaction will be terminated with an error message. The farmer can view the commission as well as the product price at each node (viz. packager, carrier, retailer) of supply chain. In addition to maintain transparency in the system, all these nodes can see the status of their products and transactions entered by every other node in the supply chain.
