The food supply chain is gaining a lot of attention these days. Due to the relativity of the food supply chain with human health directly, focusing on its problems and issues has become the need of the hour. Several issues like food safety, food contamination, and adulteration, food losses are some of the issues. Among these issues, food losses are critically important as they affect sustainable development as well. Among the several critical causes of this food loss problem, handling losses are most important and are very less studied. Handling losses are important as the causes of these losses are controllable and can be easily mitigated with the help of science and technology. This research is an effort in the defined direction. With the help of technology like blockchain and its capabilities, the authors in this study developed a framework for the food supply chain that if implemented can help in reducing handling losses. |
