By monitoring and managing the whole process of all links and conducting comprehensive analysis and utilization of traceable information, Humpback Whale's agricultural products supply chain safety traceability solution realizes the whole process monitoring of various agricultural products in planting, processing, circulation, storage and retailing, realizes network management of the whole process of agricultural products production, collates, analyzes, evaluates and warns traceable information of agricultural products, and contributes to the improvement of national food safety supervision system.

Challenge

There are many difficulties in the traceability of agricultural products, one of which is the falsification of the form of traceability. The way of display is just a QR code, and the data seen by sweeping in may actually be filled in artificially and can be modified at any time, while the participants are all unaware of it. This phenomenon has the potential to pervert the traceability of agricultural products. The second is that due to the huge potential market input, the participation of market players is low, and both planters and distribution manufacturers are basically unable to fully bear the cost. Nowadays, traceability is mostly engaged by local governments, and enterprises are reluctant to engage in it if they cannot get subsidies. The value of the traceability system itself has not yet been recognized by real consumers, as well as the market. The third is that agriculture is all encompassing, agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry and fishery, involving multi-headed management, and the coordination workload between departments is large, and there may be many information silos. Fourth, even if the formation of agricultural big data, for such data is currently mostly stacked, the lack of effective development and utilization of the traceability system itself to retain the big data, its value has yet to be tapped.

Solution

The humpback whale solution can't solve the macroscopic difficulties for the time being, but it can provide some help for the specific realization links. Blockchain technology-based SaaS platform for agricultural safety traceability realizes origin authentication, data transparency and non-tampering, and reduces trust costs. Through intelligent IOT system tools, zero development, open and ready to use, reduce costs and increase efficiency, it is a new way of supply chain finance, strengthen data supervision, realize O2O attraction and increase customer viscosity. The equipment used in this case includes LoRa gateway, built-in temperature and humidity probe, external temperature probe, portable temperature and humidity recorder, etc.
