Traceability of animal products based on a blockchain consensus mechanism

Blockchain Applications in Agriculture: A Scoping Review

“…It is interesting to notice that we have more references to farming products than to animal products. Although the difference is about three times smaller, 39%, e.g., [78,97,98] vs. 14%, e.g., [73,92], a significant percentage (38%) of the solutions do not indicate the industry to be used. A small percentage (9%) refers to goods needed in the agricultural sector, such as water, energy, and proper waste management.…”

“…Another common architectural scheme in creating decentralized applications is to store hashes in the blockchain and actual data in external storage. Most architectures use IPFS to store agriculture data and the blockchain stores either the IPFS hash [72][73][74][75][76][77][78][79] or the data hash [58,59,80]. There is a study [58] that stores data from sensors in IPFS, then the hash of this data is stored in a private permissioned blockchain, while the block hash of this blockchain and the height of the block are stored in Ethereum.…”

“Blockchain technology in food safety and traceability concern to livestock products”

“…Many other experiments and prototypes were proposed to build an IoT and blockchain-based supply chain traceability system for livestock products [ [83] , [84] , [85] , [86] , [87] , [88] ]. From these studies, we can deduce that implementing a conceptual framework for animal product supply chain traceability can greatly enhance the efficiency, security, and accountability of supply chain information, boost food quality and safety, and cut down on logistical losses by means of monitoring, tracing, and management.…”

Collaborative Green Innovation of Livestock Product Three-Level Supply Chain Traceability System: A Value Co-Creation Perspective

“…Consumers can scan QR codes on livestock products with mobile devices, allowing for real-time tracking and feedback on product information. This facilitates precise production planning, controlling the production environment, monitoring the quality, and detecting epidemics within the supply chain [2]. The efficient and transparent traceability information purifies the environment of the livestock product supply chain, strengthening communication and trust among supply chains [3].…”

“…Based on the above background analysis, the research content of this paper mainly includes: (1) to scrutinize and analyze the decision-making behavior of key participants, namely manufacturers, sellers, and consumers, in green innovation through value cocreation(GITVCC) of livestock products with traceability; (2) to identify the primary factors influencing the co-creation of green innovative values within the livestock product supply chain traceability system and determine an evolutionary stable strategy (ESS) under various decision-making scenarios; (3) to use simulation results to find solutions for value cocreation within the livestock product supply chain and provide a theoretical basis for practical applications and research.…”
