Blockchain Integrated Farmer Utility Application

Abstract

The complexity of a supply chain makes product safety or quality problems very difficult to keep track of, especially for the basic agriculture food supply chains of daily involvement in people's lives. In our hometown, farming is not just an Occupation; it's the foundation of our community's livelihood. However, farmers often face significant challenges, such as fluctuating crop prices and complex financial management. These issues can severely impact their ability to thrive, creating a need for a more effective solution. Our Farmer Utility App is developed to address these problems by providing farmers with a reliable and easy-to-use platform to stay informed about daily crop prices and manage their financial transactions efficiently. The primary problem we aim to solve is the lack of accessible tools for farmers to track their income, debts, and advances, especially those provided by our family-owned business. The app also addresses the broader issue of trust and transparency in financial transactions between farmers and businesses. Existing solutions are either too complex or do not cater to the unique needs of small-scale farmers. Our project fills a critical gap by integrating cloud computing for secure and scalable data storage, Al for predicting crop price trends, and blockchain technology to ensure the security and transparency of all transactions. These technological integrations are designed to empower farmers, helping them make informed decisions while also enhancing the efficiency of our family business operations. The outcomes of this project are important because they directly contribute to the economic stability of farmers in our community. By making financial management more accessible and transparent, we are not only supporting the livelihoods of individual farmers but also fostering a healthier, more sustainable agricultural ecosystem. Addressing these problems is essential for the continued growth and success of both our farmers and our family business.
