Which is India's 1 st state to Use Blockchain To Distribute Seed To Farmers?
The Directorate of Agriculture, Jharkhand, and global blockchain technology company, SettleMint, India jointly announced the successful launch of seed distribution to farmers based on blockchain technology. Jharkhand is the 1st state to implement blockchain in the country which is being used to track seed distribution. The move to implement blockchain is aimed at bringing transparency and authenticity of seeds which the farmers receive under the seed exchange scheme and other schemes. It will play a crucial role in the transparent execution of schemes while doing away with middlemen as it enables traceability, real-time monitoring, and efficient management of the schemes. The blockchain platform tracks seed supply distribution-from issuing of supply orders from the Directorate of Agriculture, placing of seed demand by District Agriculture Officer, tracking seed distribution from empanelled government seed producing agencies to distributors, retailers, LAMPS/PACS, FPOs, and finally to the farmers.
