[QUOTE="Chris F, post: 6015334, member: 5328"] A member said on another thread I was a little harsh about the performance of Red Tractor. I personally believe our farming standards are some of the best in the world. So working on that premise, wouldn't it be nice if Red Tractor actually highlighted this instead of being used as a stick. And blockchain could be the building blocks of an answer. If Red Tractor was really working it would show the excellence and quality that UK farmers produce. As quality levels would be verifiably higher. [B]Putting it simply[/B] - "blockchain is an incorruptible digital ledger of actions that can be programmed to record virtually anything of value.” Sound familiar? It can't be forged. It can't be faked. It can't be hacked. It can't be retrospectively filled in and it is always open for interrogation. It is an online version of all the records we already hold, with multiple people being able to access it at all times. And the impressive thing is - its already being done. But its by the brands like Napolina Tomatoes - as they want to ensure their supply chain is completely auditable not on one day of the year, but on every day of the year. [URL]https://www.edie.net/news/7/Princes-turns-to-blockchain-to-minimise-supply-chain-sustainability-risks/[/URL] They are using the data to know what needs auditing, rather than one audit a year. Its not a stretch to see that this could be done at a UK level. "Blockchain" is just the digital ledger that holds the records. So when you read things like this and then look at the systems used by Red Tractor and the many, many stories you read on TFF. I'm happy to stand by my comments that - "It's just not good enough". Red Tractor has to change. [/QUOTE]
