BLOCK CHAIN TECHNOLOGY ARCHITECTURE FOR SUPPLY CHAIN TRACEABILITY OF FISHERIES PRODUCTS IN INDONESIA: FUTURE CHALLENGE

The purpose of this study is to design a block chain technology architecture model with a product traceability mechanism to maintain the safety, quality, and consumer trust in the supply chain of capture fisheries products. The methods used in the research include data collection and analysis, identification of the current supply chain system and traceability mechanisms, developing a block chain-based fisheries supply chain traceability system architecture, and designing the smart contract mechanism in the developed system architecture. The results obtained from this study were a model of supply chain architecture for fisheries in Indonesia with traceability mechanisms and the use of smart contracts. The development of the results is expected to provide a comprehensive design of the application of block chain technology and its advantages. Furthermore, it also expected to increase product traceability, transparency, and trust in Indonesian fishery products. This is intended to maintain the quality and safety of perishable food products, especially capture fisheries products in Indonesia.
