Food traceability refers to the ability to track food products through all stages of production, processing, and distribution. Blockchain technology can enhance this by providing an immutable and transparent record of a food item’s journey from farm to consumer. Each step, from sourcing ingredients to transportation and retail, can be recorded on a distributed ledger. This system permits rapid identification of contamination sources and verification of ethical sourcing.
