Blockchain technology could transform the entire food industry, some bullish tech prospectors say, by increasing efficiency, transparency and collaboration throughout the food system.
Consumers could be able to trace the source of their lettuce in seconds. Shippers could see if a truck is full before they schedule a delivery. Grocery stores could verify if a carton of eggs is actually cage-free. Or could they? As blockchain gets closer to its marketplace debut in the food system, it’s important to scrutinize just how the technology will actually work.
Also, blockchain can be used for
1. Food recall
2. Product labeling
3. Farm And Distributor Information
In the Walmart-IBM blockchain that made news this past week, the system is far more limited in scale. It’s only open to those in Walmart’s leafy green food supply chain, which will likely translate into hundreds of users, not tens of thousands. As a result, there are fewer digital additions to the data chain, which means fewer verification nodes and, most importantly, far less energy expended overall. The IBM system also isn’t trustless because its members are known to each other in the supply chain.
