Abstract:
Agriculture is a wide industry in India and the supply chain for the same is very complex. Even though farming, distributing and selling Agri products are quite evolved, still Post-harvest dubiety is the biggest issue faced by the Indian agriculture market. Hence, farmers will be never benefited from fault pricing, improper sorting and grading of farmed products, lack of proper storage facility and middleman hoarding of vegetables to manipulate rates in the market. These issues will take more time for vegetables to reach consumers and hence quality and freshness of these products get compromised. Block chain technology can revolutionize these pertaining challenges in agriculture. It can help to provide quality Agri products from farmer to consumer. This paper examines the Solana blockchain enabled model in Indian farming. Solana provides the fastest blockchain ecosystem and follows Proof Of History which is more secure with less transaction cost. Scalability is the biggest advantage in Solana when compared with any other blockchain technology. Proof of History consensus makes transaction processing using Solana very efficient as the network breaks down data into smaller chunks making it easy to transfer across the network. It is the fastest blockchain in existence today. The framework proposed is to overcome current issues faced by supply chain in Indian agriculture through cost effective manner. Keywords: Block chain, Block chain technology, Solana, Proof of History, Agri products.
