There are several instances when the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in the USA warns us of some outbreak in some specific or multiple food products. With such warnings, a lot of food gets wasted. However, with proper labeling and trackback system, only the food that is affected could be identified. By doing that, destroying only that food could save a lot of wastage of food. Blockchain is a technique that can trackback, from which farm the bad food is coming, could be identified very easily. The main motive of this research paper is to implement blockchain technology for the food network industry to allow a more secure, universal tracking scheme for shipments and transactions. By comparing this method to current food supply chain management systems, it is concluded that our proposed technique is much efficient and secure in solving the currently existing problems in the food supply chain industry.
