Food Traceability and Prevention of Location Fraud using Blockchain
Kar Seng Loke, Ong Chin Ann · 2020
Food traceability has gained widespread prominence in recent years due to the widely reported food fraud and safety issues and there is a need for a simple low-cost solution. Adopting the design science research methodology, we proposed a design-based set of practical criteria for food tracking system that includes the prevention of location data input fraud. The design was successfully implemented on a blockchain as food tracking system. Based on our evaluation, the design and prototype demonstrate a viable approach to food tracking and limiting food fraud.
