Using blockchain technology in organic

Ever wondered how blockchain technology can be used by the organic sector? Check out the highlights of the innovation experiment led by the partners of the SmartAgriHubs project.

Transparency and trust are crucial for a well-performing and sustainable organic food sector. With the help of apps such as OriginTrail crucial, supply chain data could be connected and secured from manipulation through blockchain technology. These data secured can be further used for traceability of organic products, increasing trust of the consumers and optimising supply chain management. SmartAgriHubs project partners from Slovenia tested the technology in the poultry and dairy pilots. Learn more about the experiment.
