Abstract

This solution overview outlines the implementation of FoodTraze’s blockchain-based traceability system for poultry products. It focuses on ensuring transparency and accountability throughout the poultry supply chain, allowing consumers to trust the safety and quality of the poultry they purchase.

Introduction

With increasing consumer concern for food safety and ethical sourcing, traceability in the poultry supply chain has become essential. FoodTraze leverages blockchain technology to track each stage of poultry production and distribution, ensuring full visibility into the product’s journey from farm to table. This solution enables stakeholders to maintain high standards, improve consumer trust, and ensure compliance with safety regulations.

Implementation

The FoodTraze solution for poultry involves documenting various Critical Tracking Events (CTEs) and collecting Key Data Elements (KDEs) to ensure full transparency throughout the supply chain.

Critical Tracking Events (CTEs):

Breeding and Rearing: Documenting information such as poultry breed, farm conditions, feed quality, and vaccination records.
Processing: Tracking slaughtering, cleaning, and packaging processes to ensure hygiene standards are met.
Packaging: Recording packaging dates, batch numbers, and conditions to maintain product integrity.
Distribution: Monitoring transportation conditions such as temperature control to ensure product quality is maintained during delivery.

Key Data Elements (KDEs):

Farm Information: Details of the poultry farm, including certifications, breed details, and sustainability practices.
Health Records: Information about health checks, vaccinations, and overall welfare of the poultry.
Batch Information: Data on each batch, including processing times, packaging details, and distribution dates.
Transport Records: Documentation of transport conditions, including temperature control and route details.

Consumer Access

Consumers can scan a QR code on poultry product packaging to access detailed information about its origin, production, and distribution. This feature enhances transparency, fosters trust, and promotes informed decision-making.

Conclusion

By implementing FoodTraze, stakeholders in the poultry supply chain can ensure food safety, compliance with regulations, and build consumer confidence in the quality and safety of their products.
