“…The transparency alleviates concerns about food safety and authenticity [24]. Several studies have been conducted to address blockchain challenges and limitations such as scalability, data privacy, data accuracy, security, lack of regulations and adoption [25], [26], [27], [28], [29], [30]. However, additional research is required to explore the potential of blockchain technology in agri-food supply chains and to develop effective frameworks and models for its implementation.…”

“…It is also capable of managing assemblies and products, ensuring the privacy of data storage [15]. A novel framework that utilises a blockchain network to facilitate supply chain traceability and counterfeit detection of COVID-19 vaccines has been proposed by [16]. It facilitates the secure management of supply chain operations for distribution companies to prevent fraudulent vaccines and transform supply chain management in the healthcare industry.…”

The agri-food supply chain encompasses all the entities involved in the production and processing of food, from producers to consumers. Traceability is crucial in ensuring that food products are available, affordable, and accessible. Blockchain technology has been proposed as a way to improve traceability in the agri-food supply chain by providing transparency and trust. However, research in this area is still in its early stages. This study aims to examine the trend of blockchain in agri-food supply chain traceability for food security. A bibliometric analysis was conducted on 1047 scholarly works from the Scopus database, starting in 2016. The analysis looked at citation patterns and the development of blockchain technology in agri-food supply chain research and identified trends by source title, nation, institution, and key players. The analysis also examined the frequency of keywords, titles, and abstracts to identify key themes. The analysis has revealed a strong correlation between blockchain technology and traceability in the agri-food supply chain, indicating a promising area for further research. The results show that blockchainbased research for traceability in the agri-food supply chain has increased and is being widely distributed, particularly in regions beyond Europe. The potential benefits it can bring to the supply chain will contribute to the success of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by ensuring a safe and sufficient global food supply.

“…The other approach is using a customised blockchain network instead of public networks. Hyperledger Fabric-based models proposed in (65,69,87), and the personal blockchain-based models proposed in (77,78,97) have been aimed at overcoming public network problems like Ethereum off-chain storage. However, these frameworks also exhibit scalability issues due to the complexity and maintenance of the applications.…”

Healthcare is a critical area where blockchain technology (BT) is being heralded as a potential game-changer for facilitating secure and efficient data sharing. The purpose of this review is to examine BT applications, performance challenges, and solutions in healthcare. To begin, This review paper explores popular blockchain networks for data exchange, encompassing both public and permissioned platforms, such as Ethereum and Hyperledger Fabric. This paper analyzes the potential applications of BT’s decentralized, immutable, and smart contract capabilities in healthcare settings, including secure and interoperable health data exchange, patient consent management, drug supply chain oversight, and clinical trial management. The healthcare industry might greatly benefit from the increased privacy, transparency, and accessibility that these technologies provide. Despite BT’s promising medical uses, the technology is not without its drawbacks. High energy consumption, throughput, and scalability are all concerns. We wrapped up by discussing the solutions that have been implemented, including consensus processes, scalability measures like sharding, and off-chain transactions that are designed to mitigate the drawbacks.
