This invention outlines a system to automatically track agricultural products from the farm through to retail. It works by collecting and storing a wide range of information, such as planting details, growing conditions, and processing steps, for a specific crop within a defined geographic area. This detailed data is then organized into a unique profile and linked to an identifier for the physical container or storage bin holding that particular batch of produce. The claims specifically detail tracking various types of corn and organic crops, including granular planting information like seed source and soil conditions.
Why it matters: Filed before the widespread adoption of cloud computing and IoT sensors, which now make collecting and integrating diverse agricultural data for traceability much more feasible and cost-effective. Modern data analytics and scalable database systems also simplify arranging and managing such extensive data profiles.
