Abstract—The supply chain industry is facing significant challenges related to transparency, security, and accountability. To address these challenges, we present the Decentralized food supply - a Dapp, which is built on the Ethereum blockchain to provide a transparent and secure system for tracking products in the supply chain industry. The App's smart contracts define the rules and operations of the application, and the user interface provides a user-friendly interface for users to interact with the smart contracts. The App also provides direct benefits to farmers who are given tokens based on positive reviews and feedback from end-users. We also analyze the potential impact of the Decentralized Food Supply on the supply chain industry, showing how the App can provide greater transparency, security, and accountability to the participants in the supply chain. This paper provides a detailed description of the App's methodology, implementation, and evaluation, which includes research, development, testing, evaluation, and results. The analysis showed that the App provides a satisfactory level of performance, is easy to use, and is secure, with no major security vulnerabilities. This paper highlights the potential of blockchain technology to address challenges in the supply chain industry and provides insights into the development and implementation of a decentralized application for supply chain tracking. Finally, we discuss future work in this area, including the exploration of alternative blockchains and the integration of additional features, such as sensor-based tracking. Overall, the Decentralized Food Supply provides a promising platform for the development of transparent and secure systems for tracking products in the supply chain industry.
