UTILIZING DISTRIBUTED LEDGER TECHNOLOGIES FOR WHEAT SUPPLY

Abstract

This study focuses on the enhancement of scalability and traceability in wheat supply chain logistics, utilizing Ethereum Blockchain and IoT sensors, with development based in Hardhat environment and the entire distributed application (dApp) encapsulated within a React-based framework. The Ethereum ledger efficiently records each phase from wheat production and sacks logistics to the final product's distribution, creating an immutable and transparent audit trail. This transparency builds trust among supply chain participants and eases compliance with legal standards. The paper not only highlights the potential challenges and barriers in adopting Ethereum Blockchain and IoT sensors in the wheat industry but also proposes solutions to these issues. Key considerations like scalability and data integrity are emphasized. The React-based application further ensures a robust, user-friendly platform, enhancing the security of the supply chain management. The paper outlines strategic approaches for effective implementation and broad adoption of these technologies.
