There is a growing need to reduce the use of poisonous chemicals in the food production. We need a system to monitor and manage such chemical usage. Due to globalization, the supplier and the consumer can be across the countries or continents. Hence global crop quality standards must consider; local regulations, grower's knowledge/skills and also agro input ecosystem. We need to carefully study the entire supply-chain, various stakeholders and find the points of exchange of the products or services. Digital technology can help to map and manage this diversity, across different time zones, culture, language and practices. mKRISHI® provides a digital platform to identify the farm, record, the laborer skills, manage pesticide inventory and including consumption date, time, dosage, etc. Each plot was identified by plot code and Global Gap Number (GGN). Hence, it's easy to trace back the produce (grape box) to the plot as well as get the agro inputs used to produce it. Using a QR code and a mobile app, it's easy for the consumer to get the desired information at their fingertips. Such end to end supply chain digitization not only improves the traceability but also creates a digital mapping framework from farm to fork.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
