‣ In this digital <strong>world</strong>, farm owners and growers are <strong>in</strong> need of<br />

technology which produces real benefits <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> near term.<br />

‣ In <strong>agriculture</strong>, <strong>blockcha<strong>in</strong></strong> promises a s<strong>in</strong>gle source of truth about <strong>the</strong><br />

state of your farm, <strong>in</strong>ventory and contracts.<br />

‣ Many farmers today utilize <strong>the</strong> apps, software, spreadsheets and a<br />

comb<strong>in</strong>ation of th<strong>in</strong>gs to record <strong>the</strong>ir data.<br />

‣ The effort has been multiplied when farm service providers require<br />

<strong>the</strong> <strong>in</strong>formation and data <strong>in</strong> order to deliver <strong>the</strong> services.<br />

By provid<strong>in</strong>g a s<strong>in</strong>gle source of data for a farm, <strong>blockcha<strong>in</strong></strong> would<br />

m<strong>in</strong>imizes <strong>the</strong> stra<strong>in</strong> of record keep<strong>in</strong>g and ma<strong>in</strong>ta<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong> multiple<br />

record systems.<br />

It is ultimately save <strong>the</strong> time and energy <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>agriculture</strong> value cha<strong>in</strong>.<br />

It is very important to realize that <strong>the</strong> <strong>blockcha<strong>in</strong></strong> alone cant make<br />

growers more money, but it can provide <strong>the</strong> technology <strong>in</strong>frastructure for<br />

th<strong>in</strong>gs like automation, digitization and track<strong>in</strong>g, that could drive <strong>the</strong><br />

farmers towards <strong>the</strong> modern <strong>agriculture</strong>.<br />

Traceability <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> crop supply cha<strong>in</strong>:<br />

Most of <strong>the</strong> early application of <strong>blockcha<strong>in</strong></strong> <strong>in</strong> <strong>agriculture</strong> needs to do<br />

with traceability and supply cha<strong>in</strong>.<br />

A <strong>blockcha<strong>in</strong></strong> ledger can record and update <strong>the</strong> status of crops from <strong>the</strong><br />

process of plant<strong>in</strong>g to harvest to storage to delivery.<br />

The positive side of large operations is a secure, immutable ledger<br />

which ensures that you never lose a load.<br />

The status of <strong>the</strong> crops should be available <strong>in</strong> real time.<br />

‣ The demand for organic and <strong>the</strong><br />

specialty production method grows,<br />

<strong>the</strong>re is a considerable <strong>in</strong>centives<br />

for growers who can produce <strong>the</strong><br />

documentation of <strong>the</strong> supply cha<strong>in</strong><br />

that went <strong>in</strong>to those foods.<br />

‣ By us<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong> <strong>blockcha<strong>in</strong></strong><br />

track<strong>in</strong>g, it enable <strong>the</strong> growers to<br />

meet regulatory compliances and<br />

consumer expectations.<br />

Organic farmers capture <strong>the</strong> detailed production data, its accuracy and<br />

share <strong>the</strong> data with third party certify<strong>in</strong>g agencies. This provides a very<br />

clear opportunity which streaml<strong>in</strong>es <strong>the</strong> data entry and <strong>in</strong>crease <strong>the</strong><br />

frequency of data verification through <strong>the</strong> <strong>blockcha<strong>in</strong></strong>.<br />

There are some additional benefits of traceability comes when its<br />

time to sell <strong>the</strong> harvest to gra<strong>in</strong> buyers or food processors.<br />

The quality of <strong>the</strong> deliveries are ensured by <strong>the</strong> growers and even<br />

manage <strong>the</strong> asset exchange <strong>in</strong>clud<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong>stant payment via <strong>blockcha<strong>in</strong></strong>.<br />

Traceability is not just restricted to <strong>the</strong> crops <strong>the</strong>mselves.<br />

By hav<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong> right <strong>in</strong>formation sources and or <strong>in</strong> field sensors,<br />

growers could access and track <strong>the</strong> detailed records about field<br />

applications, soil quality, wea<strong>the</strong>r, farm<strong>in</strong>g practices and seed type.<br />

Farm<strong>in</strong>g resource management:<br />

‣ There are lot more to run <strong>the</strong> operation than just <strong>the</strong> crops.<br />

‣ There is a complex, ever chang<strong>in</strong>g picture of all <strong>the</strong> <strong>in</strong>put resources<br />

which go <strong>in</strong>to crops throughout <strong>the</strong> course of a season.<br />

‣ Nowadays, most of <strong>the</strong> growers are us<strong>in</strong>g farm management software <strong>in</strong><br />

order to track where <strong>the</strong>ir resources are at a given time.<br />

‣ Decisive farm<strong>in</strong>g data platform and app enable <strong>the</strong> growers to record all<br />

field applications and <strong>the</strong>n track <strong>the</strong>se resources from <strong>the</strong> field to multiple<br />

storage location and <strong>the</strong>n to <strong>the</strong> elevator.<br />

‣ This is powerful for optimiz<strong>in</strong>g agronomics on <strong>the</strong> farm and it creates<br />

market<strong>in</strong>g value for food and beverage companies to differentiate<br />

<strong>the</strong>mselves.<br />

It is due to its decentralized nature of <strong>blockcha<strong>in</strong></strong> records.<br />

Any updates made become part of <strong>the</strong> ledger and every participat<strong>in</strong>g<br />

devices receives <strong>the</strong> updates.<br />

Even if any disconnection from <strong>the</strong> <strong>in</strong>ternet access or out <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> field,<br />

any changes would sync to <strong>the</strong> network as soon as <strong>the</strong> device rega<strong>in</strong>s its<br />

<strong>in</strong>ternet access.<br />

Blockcha<strong>in</strong> additionally can track o<strong>the</strong>r types of records like mach<strong>in</strong>ery<br />

ma<strong>in</strong>tenance, status or records of <strong>in</strong>-field sensors and equipment.<br />

https://www.scala<strong>blockcha<strong>in</strong></strong>.com/


‣ This means that <strong>the</strong> grower<br />

need to keep a real time picture of<br />

what mach<strong>in</strong>ery is available for<br />

work which mach<strong>in</strong>ery need<br />

ma<strong>in</strong>tenance soon and which are<br />

currently <strong>in</strong> repair.<br />

‣ The grower can also give an<br />

access to a mechanic <strong>blockcha<strong>in</strong></strong><br />

to update <strong>the</strong> status as soon as <strong>the</strong><br />

piece of mach<strong>in</strong>ery got fixed.<br />

‣ It is really a game changer for<br />

large operations with multiple<br />

farms and dozens of pieces of<br />

equipment <strong>in</strong> various locations<br />

and states of repair.<br />

Blockcha<strong>in</strong>, <strong>the</strong> Revolutionizer:<br />

Blockcha<strong>in</strong> is com<strong>in</strong>g for <strong>agriculture</strong> <strong>in</strong> an <strong>in</strong>credible way.<br />

It will make it easier to track, manage and transact all k<strong>in</strong>ds of<br />

<strong>agriculture</strong> assets from crops to <strong>in</strong>ventory to precision data.<br />

Blockcha<strong>in</strong> is a low level beh<strong>in</strong>d <strong>the</strong> scenes technology which creates<br />

secure databases.<br />

Software and apps which implement <strong>blockcha<strong>in</strong></strong> will look and feel <strong>the</strong><br />

same as applications growers are us<strong>in</strong>g right now.<br />

The ma<strong>in</strong> difference is <strong>blockcha<strong>in</strong></strong> opens a wealth of potential new<br />

options for collect<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong> data and automat<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong> farm management.<br />

These new <strong>blockcha<strong>in</strong></strong> powered features could make a great impact.<br />

Most important benefits:<br />

‣ It provides maximum safety, transparency and speed.<br />

‣ The data which are entered is visible to all <strong>the</strong> elements <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />

<strong>blockcha<strong>in</strong></strong>.<br />

‣ One has <strong>the</strong> freedom to ei<strong>the</strong>r approve or reject <strong>the</strong> <strong>in</strong>formation.<br />

‣ Once <strong>the</strong> data is validated, it gets recorded <strong>in</strong>to blocks which can be<br />

organized <strong>in</strong> a chronological cha<strong>in</strong> that cannot be altered by anyone.<br />

https://www.scala<strong>blockcha<strong>in</strong></strong>.com/


We can put all <strong>the</strong> <strong>in</strong>formation about <strong>the</strong> entire cycle of agricultural<br />

events <strong>in</strong> <strong>blockcha<strong>in</strong></strong> to enable transparent and trusted source of<br />

<strong>in</strong>formation for <strong>the</strong> farmers.<br />

Farmers can get <strong>in</strong>stant data related to soil moisture, seed quality,<br />

climate and environment related data, payments, demand and sale price,<br />

all at one platform.<br />

It helps to establish direct l<strong>in</strong>k between farmers and<br />

consumers/retailers.<br />

It will empower small farmers to organize <strong>the</strong>mselves and aid to reach<br />

<strong>the</strong> market without tak<strong>in</strong>g any help from middlemen.<br />

This will subsequently reduces <strong>the</strong> problem of low <strong>in</strong>come s<strong>in</strong>ce <strong>the</strong><br />

<strong>blockcha<strong>in</strong></strong> gives transparency <strong>in</strong> supply cha<strong>in</strong> that enables farmers to get<br />

<strong>the</strong> real price for <strong>the</strong>ir production.<br />

https://www.scala<strong>blockcha<strong>in</strong></strong>.com/


‣ In <strong>blockcha<strong>in</strong></strong>, <strong>the</strong> <strong>in</strong>formation is highly confidential and secured.<br />

‣ We can expect an efficient supply of products, improved product<br />

track<strong>in</strong>g and fair pric<strong>in</strong>g with <strong>the</strong> help of <strong>blockcha<strong>in</strong></strong>.<br />

‣ It enables <strong>the</strong> farmers to do <strong>the</strong> real time management of <strong>the</strong> stock.<br />
