Bayer CropScience’s Work on the Agricultural Supply Chain with STRATO
Bayer CropScience uses TraceHarvest to track its grain product from origin to end using STRATO. Read more about the seed traceability initiative.
BlockApps’ Track and Trace Application
Track and trace is a generic asset tracking application that can be installed on a STRATO blockchain network.
Track and trace comes with a built in “widget” asset that can represent any physical good (e.g. grain, food, or livestock) OR digital/financial asset (e.g. loan, payout, or subsidy) as a smart contract.
BlockApps’ Track and Trace application can build traceable end-to-end supply chains for agriculture, which would drive food safety, traceability, consumer trust, and create industry standards. It can also, through its smart contracts, track and automate the movements financial or digital assets such as subsidies, providing the oversight to ensure precise and proper application of such goods.

Digitize Land Registration
Traditionally manual land registration systems have created a dearth of data, and rendered the land transfer process delayed, costly, and inefficient.
Food Safety Processes
The lack of traceability in the food supply chain allows for operational errors and fraud, which in turn drive unnecessary and exorbitant food recalls.
Inventory Management and Storage
Agriculture inventory mismanagement processes lack precision and efficiency and cost the world around $1 trillion a year, and more in waste .
Tracefood
Tracefood facilitates seamless and end to end traceability of food supply chain with inventive blockchain solutions devised by leading blockchain developers. We strive to set fresh paradigms in the fresh produce industry with our progressive Blockchain deliverables.
Reduce Fertilizer Waste
40-80 percent of fertilizer is lost to the environment, largely driven by manual and lagging systems which are unable to provide oversight on lost product and waste.
