Abstract
Traceability is an important component of food supply chain management
because it allows businesses to track food products from their origin to the point of
consumption. However, the current food supply chain system frequently lacks proper
traceability methods, making it difficult to pinpoint the source of food safety concerns,
monitor product quality, and assure regulatory compliance. As a result, there is a
growing need to rethink food supply chain management to assure traceability. Artificial
intelligence (AI), the Internet of Things (IoT), and blockchain are contributing to the
resolution of these issues by increasing accountability, traceability, and efficiency. The
application of blockchain, IoT, and AI to food supply chain management is examined
in this book chapter. It highlights the possible advantages of incorporating these
technologies into the food industry, including improved food safety, real-time food
quality monitoring, and increased supply chain visibility. It looks at other uses as well,
such as decentralized food traceability systems, smart packaging, and predictive
analytics. The chapter also discusses the obstacles and restrictions that come with
implementing these technologies in the food supply chain, as well as potential solutions
and effectiveness.
