The agricultural product traceability system based on blockchain can monitor the entire growth cycle of agricultural products, trace it at any time, and cannot tamper with information without authorization. However, the energy consumption of the entire system is relatively high due to the introduction of blockchain technology. In order to alleviate the problem of high overall energy consumption, we are trying to reduce the communication power consumption between terminal sensors and the full nodes of the blockchain. We use the K-means algorithm, the DBSCAN algorithm and the improved DK fusion algorithm we proposed to deploy blockchain full nodes to the agricultural products sensors that have been determined to reduce the communication power consumption of the sensor terminals and improve the coverage of the full nodes to the terminal sensors.

As China’s agricultural output has improved, the national and local monitoring system of agricultural product safety has become much better, and monitoring standards have become increasingly strict. Despite this, there are agricultural product safety incidents which have caused consumer panic. One way to address this is by properly establishing tracking systems so that agricultural product logistics in China can be tracked and monitored. We explored this research objective with agricultural traceability and security in mind. One option that could be considered is the blockchain technology. Blockchain could also be used to ascertain the provenance of agricultural products to increase the quality and safety of the Chinese agricultural supply chain. In this context, this research converged on big data and technology, platforms and other means for product quality and safety of agricultural products traceability. In order to verify the accuracy of these three convergence, regression analysis were used to construct five models for verification of three hypothesis. The results show that based on “Internet+”, using big data, big technology and big platform can significantly increase the accuracy of agricultural products traceability system hence improve consumer acceptance of the safety of agricultural products.

Recently, energy efficiency or green IT has become a hot issue for many IT infrastructures as they attempt to utilize energy-efficient strategies in their enterprise IT systems in order to minimize operational costs. Networking devices are shared resources connecting important IT infrastructures, especially in a data center network they are always operated 24/7 which consume a huge amount of energy, and it has been obviously shown that this energy consumption is largely independent of the traffic through the devices. As a result, power consumption in networking devices is becoming more and more a critical problem, which is of interest for both research community and general public. Multicast benefits group communications in saving link bandwidth and improving application throughput, both of which are important for green data center. In this paper, we study the deployment strategy of multicast switches in hybrid mode in energy-aware data center network: a case of famous fat-tree topology. The objective is to find the best location to deploy multicast switch not only to achieve optimal bandwidth utilization but also to minimize power consumption. We show that it is possible to easily achieve nearly 50% of energy consumption after applying our proposed algorithm.

With the development of Internet technology, especially the application of mobile Internet technology in people’s daily lives, people’s lifestyles and production methods have changed, and they have brought huge economic benefits to society. In order to improve the development quality of agricultural e-commerce and expand the integration model of e-commerce, the paper analyzes the development and changes of Internet technology in the agricultural industry chain from the source to operation, production, service, security, and sales and studies the production experience model iterative upgrade. At the same time, a blockchain-based agricultural product traceability system is proposed. The system has a good supervision effect. Once recorded on the blockchain ledger, all data cannot be changed, which plays a very good traceability role for agricultural e-commerce. Actual cases show that the integrated model of agricultural e-commerce based on blockchain technology can bring huge development potential to the e-commerce industry and can improve the security and traceability of agricultural e-commerce.

The present work serves to improve the stable cooperation relationship among subjects of supply chain such as enterprises, farmers, intermediary organizations, and retailers and enhance the governance and optimization of agricultural product supply chain, thus strengthening the competitiveness of China’s agricultural industry. The supply chain governance of agricultural products is taken as the research object. Initially, the stabilities of two supply chain organization modes, “company and farmer” and “company, intermediary organization and farmer,” are analyzed by static game analysis. Then, based on the above analysis and the characteristics of blockchain institutional technology, a detailed analyzation is made on the mechanism of supply chain of agricultural products governance based on blockchain technology. Finally, the functional framework of agricultural supply chain governance is designed based on the basic framework of blockchain technology, and analyzation is made on the trust mechanism and contract mechanism of agricultural supply chain governance based on blockchain technology. The research results show that problems such as information and cognitive constraints in agricultural supply chain governance cannot be completely solved only through the evolution of blockchain organizational structure and the supply of governance mechanism, and speculative behavior will still appear. Optimizing the governance of supply chain of agricultural products based on blockchain technology can realize the transformation of its governance scenario. Meanwhile, the blockchain technologies such as deintermediation, demistrust, and intelligent contract play an important role in the process of agricultural supply chain governance, which can make it change in many aspects such as organization mode, application operation, and governance mechanism. The rapid development of new generation information technologies such as blockchain, the Internet of Things, and computer technology makes it possible to comprehensively digitize economic activities such as production and transaction in the supply chain of agricultural products. The present work combines the technical logic of blockchain digital governance with the institutional logic of agricultural product supply chain governance and tries to solve the instability problems caused by imperfect organization, lack of trust, and incomplete contract in agricultural product supply chain governance with the characteristics of blockchain such as deintermediation, demistrust, and intelligent contract.


The research proposes a blockchain based traceability system on agricultural products supply chain, where each exchange is rearranged as a block in the chain and is noticeable to the authorized members concerned. The Paper is based on a methodology in which an effective method for recognizing a guaranteed product using blockchain innovation is used; that is, to store information from chemical lab test in sequence and chronological order, so that they are difficult to control a short time later. Here we try to understand how blockchain technology is applied in tea powder production and delivery. The data blocks are permanent as any change to the recorded data, breaks the link. In the general process of converting tea leaves to the tea powder bundles, the traceability framework proposes security, transparency and safety. The need for a traceability system for the food supply chain is unavoidable when irrational chemicals and hazardous synthetic substances are manufactured, adulterated, processed and used. Adulterants are to a great extent added to food products to diminish production costs, sell it at a more significant cost or to attract the purchaser in some other way. To beat these issues, food supply industry needs a transparent system which empowers a purchaser to confirm the structure of each food product from the farm to the retailer.

Recently, the food safety issue of agricultural products has attracted focus all over the world. Due to a long supply chain compared with the animal or other kinds of products and the complex processes with huge links. The Food safety traceability system (FTS) is an effective way to verify of food safety and healthy. This research was designed and implemented traceability barcode for an agricultural product (Dates) followed the common encoding scheme (UCC/EAN128) with enhancing by added human readable information about the most significant data for the end consumer such as expire and production date. The proposed system takes DTS barcode as an information carrier which identifies dates products closely related to farming, processing, packing, transportation and distributing. DTS adopts on Web Service Technology for tracing and extracting all information related to the date product using barcode. Customers can scan or typing the barcode in the system website. The Web Service interface provided by DTS will return all traceability information to the end consumer. Using the proposed code has proved by practice that it can extract all information in high accurate level as well as acceptance from the end consumer because important information is written in a language he/she understands.

In traditional agricultural supply chain management, due to involvement of many stakeholders in the entire procedure ranging from farmers, retailers to final vendors, it is merely the producer of the agricultural products i.e., farmers get its direct benefit. The middle stakeholders are always more beneficial than farmers and hence, the conditions of farmers are always the same though they sometimes get good earning and it is becoming a very serious concern in India. The major reason behind it, the transparency and traceability of the entire supply chain of this agricultural products journey from farm to vendor shop. In addition, consumers are becoming more conscious of where their food and food products come from. Block chains have distributed ledger technology (DLT) which has potential to provide transparency and trust for agricultural product supply chains at its different stages and even useful for improving its efficiency. This can boost confidence of all stakeholders who are involved in this farming supply chain. This research paper proposes the same concept in its subsequent sections.
