Abstract

The demand from consumers about information transparency in raw materials, production, and manufacturing processes of the products they purchase is increasing in recent markets. The traceability and provenance of information across all stakeholders on the supply chain is becoming an essential requirement. In this paper, we design a model for a blockchain ecosystem to meet the supply chain ecosystem and an application for dairy farm product provenance. This model aims to provide a reliable provenance of dairy products for consumers based on the requirements and regulations. By adopting this model, consumers can receive all information from the public blockchain by scanning the QR code on the package of products. The overall benefits of this proposed model are discussed along with further applications in Australian Diary exportation trade.
