Abstract. Nowadays, the cost of agricultural products is increasing progressively, even the farmers are not getting a sufficient enough for their production, due to the involvement of the corrupted intermediaries. Debts of the farmers have been increased, which leads to their committing suicide. As of now, no automation method exists to track the price of agricultural goods. To reduce corruption and to help the farmers to get a profit, there is a need to trace the product's costs and store them in a file starting from the product's manufacturer. Blockchain technology works as a decentralized and immutable ledger. A block chain is a sequence that maintains a list of transactions. These blocks contain information on the transactions. It protects against any critical cyber-attack, thereby providing the utmost security and encrypted data with privacy. It helps us store all the transaction history of the product from its manufacturing. Our aim is to implement a supply chain for agricultural products using Blockchain technology, to track and tackle the price fluctuation in the market.
