Using DLT/blockchain to developing a reliable Assurance system for Gluten Free Oats
Using DLT/blockchain to developing a reliable Assurance system for Gluten Free Oats
Objectives
The project will involve collecting digitalyl twinned data of field and other farm records of the gluten free oat crop that will include: previous cropping; field operations; crop inputs; harvest date and storage data. This will be stored using blockchain and placed on a Distributed Ledger (DLT) that will enable the operations, inputs, growth and handling of the oats to be tracked from field to storage. The follow-on to this will be to extend the DLT along the supply chain to include processing, manufacturing and potnetially the consumer, adding additional assurance data at each stage.
