farmers. During this process, customers emphasize the need for agri-food
safety, while producers hope to enhance their revenues. Due to the dynamism and complexity of the Bangladesh ASC, the traceability and control of
agri-food goods encounter formidable obstacles. Due to their reliance on intermediaries, legal financial hurdles, Ethereum-based financial solutions, etc.,
however, most existing solutions cannot adequately meet the traceability and
management needs of Bangladesh ASC. To solve these issues, the authors
proposed an integrated Agri-food supply chain (IASC) model. In this study, a
systematic review of the literature was conducted using a thematic analysis
method. In a portion of the model, the authors depicted a linear physical flow
to illustrate the relationship and function of intermediaries and to explain
Bangladesh ASCās dependence on intermediaries. The approach incorporates
Blockchain technology and IoT to promote transparency, minimize mistake,
prevent product delays, remove unethical and illegal actions, improve supply
chain (SC) management, track the whereabouts of the goods, and eventually
increase consumer and supplier trust. The article also mentions that crypto
currency-based financial transactions between stakeholders in the supply
chain are now unlawful in Bangladesh. For blockchain API, a mobile banking
and digital payment-based solution has been proposed. Finally, the blockchain-based Hyperledger Sawtooth API has been suggested so that clients can
trace the entire history of a product by scanning the QR code on the packaging. Since Bangladeshās economy is primarily based on agriculture, this research can assist in boosting Bangladeshās economy. The paper would also
contribute to the reduction of corruption and the improvement of firmer/
grower and consumer satisfaction. The findings also pave the way for future
studies to implement blockchain technology in ASC without relying on Ethereum-based financial flow solutions.
intermediaries Previous research on the Bangladesh food supply chain shown that several
intermediaries profit from the consumer price. Primary distribution has five intermediaries shown in
the figure (Das, Rubel, & Hanaoka, 2010). Faria sold little amounts of merchandise in three or four
local markets. They offer farmer items to the Beparies. Landless laborers or small farmers without fulltime farm occupations are frequent (Tasnoova, & Iwamoto, 2006). Capital constraints limit their
business volume. Beparies are specialist merchants who buy agricultural items from farmers or farias
at the market or hamlet. Faria produced less. Bepary sells to Aratdar. Aratdar provides storage spaces
between Bepari and shops for a predetermined commission. Retailers complete marketing channels
(Das et al., 2010). They offer things from Beparis via Aratdar. According to the comparison, ASC in
Bangladesh flows linearly.

structure revolves around this one factor. Agriculture is not only an important source of food and raw
materials, but it is also an important source of employment opportunities for a significant fraction of
the total population. In agriculture food supply chains, also known as ASCs, customers are the ones
who pay for the agricultural products that farmers produce. During this process, customers place a
higher priority on the safety of agriculturally produced foods, while farmers anticipate an increase in
their revenues. The effectiveness of traceability and management for agri-food products is met with a
vast array of obstacles as a result of the complexities and dynamism of ASCs. However, the majority
of the currently available solutions are not able to satisfactorily meet the standards of ASCs regarding
traceability and management [2]. Chen et al., proposed a blockchain-based ASC framework to
provide product traceability [1]. This framework guarantees decentralized security for the agriculture
food tracing data stored in ASCs. This was done in order to address the problems that have been
presented. In order to guarantee the quality of the food, it is critical to have complete visibility into
the agricultural supply chain management. Along with that, it improves the overall pleasure of the
customers and the productivity of the peers. The centralized storage of data makes it more difficult to
guarantee the items' quality and rate, as well as their point of origin. Consequently, we are in need of
a decentralized system that allows for transparency and provides everyone, from the producers to the
consumers, with the satisfaction they seek [4]. The supply chain can now have both greater
traceability and transparency thanks to blockchain technology, which is a form of digital technology.
According to Madumidha utilization of this technology results in an improvement to the community
that exists between the various stakeholders and the farmers. Increased capacity, improved security,
immutability, minting, speedier settlement, and full traceability of all recorded transaction records are
fundamentally provided by blockchain's feature
