This study presents a blockchain-based traceability system designed specifically for the olive oil supply chain, addressing key challenges in transparency, quality assurance, and fraud prevention. The system integrates Internet of Things (IoT) technology with a decentralized blockchain framework to provide real-time monitoring of critical quality metrics. A practical web application, linked to the Ethereum blockchain, enables stakeholders to track each stage of the supply chain via tamper-proof records. Key functionalities include smart contracts that automate quality checks, ensuring data integrity and providing immediate verification of product authenticity. Initial user feedback highlights the system's potential to enhance transparency and reduce fraud risks in the olive oil market, supporting consumer trust and regulatory compliance. This approach offers a scalable solution adaptable to other high-value agricultural products, demonstrating the blockchain's transformative potential for secure and transparent food traceability.
本研究提出了一种专门为橄榄油供应链设计的基于区块链的可追溯系统，以应对透明度、质量保证和欺诈预防方面的关键挑战。该系统将物联网（IoT）技术与去中心化的区块链框架相结合，以提供关键质量指标的实时监测。一个与以太坊区块链相连的实用网络应用程序使利益相关者能够通过防篡改记录跟踪供应链的每个阶段。关键功能包括自动执行质量检查的智能合约，确保数据完整性并立即验证产品真伪。初步用户反馈突出了该系统在提高橄榄油市场透明度和降低欺诈风险方面的潜力，支持消费者信任和监管合规。这种方法提供了一种可扩展的解决方案，适用于其他高价值农产品，展示了区块链在安全和透明食品可追溯性方面的变革潜力。
