What is it

The BIAS (Blockchain enabled Intelligent Agricultural Services) project proposes a new food traceability system. The next-generation DLT (Distributed Ledger Technologies) platform uniquely and transparently records data from the cultivation, harvesting, processing, packaging, transport and distribution of food.

Problem

The issue of traceability along the food production chain is addressed. Thanks to the BIAS platform, it will be possible to visualise directly on the Blockchain the data related to the main production phases, from the procurement of raw materials to the shipment of the finished product.

Solution

Data from both ‘human’ operators in the supply chains involved (manual data entry) and from sensors and field devices (automatically and via ‘machine 2 machine’ communication protocols) are used. The use of such devices, which is limited today, is set to increase rapidly with the explosion of new IoT equipment.

The BIAS platform was developed by DGS in cooperation with the project partners NetValue srl and 3a srl and with the advice of the University of Genoa and the AGRION foundation.
