Entities involved in Plaas with approach for Supply Chain
1. Farmer – a producer who can communicate about his production to the world by an app on his smartphone. When there is no such possibility, he/she can go to the nearest education center and trade from there if they don’t have a smartphone or education.
2. Storage – a network of storages and trusted places where products can be checked and securely stored. Elevators for grain have to be placed across the country to offer ease of access. Each of the storage has to be equipped with labs or certification offices which will allow the product to be sold. They determine its quality and if a product is traceable, they start it using RFID or blockchain.
3. Buyers – registered organizations capable to buy products and get them from the storages.
4. Logistic – if needed organization which will allow product delivery
5. Trading platform – a virtual place of the trade with easy access to everybody
