For FPOs and cooperatives
Traceability for FPOs and farmer cooperatives
An FPO already knows which member grew which lot. IndiTrace keeps that on record, from the farmer registry and procurement to processing and dispatch, and gives every lot a page a buyer can scan. Your members' produce stops being anonymous by the time it reaches the buyer.
The questions your buyers ask
Which farmers grew this lot?
The lot record lists the members who delivered into it, with dates and quantities.
Was it kept separate?
Aggregation, processing and dispatch are recorded against the same lot, in order.
Will the next order be the same?
Every lot gets the same kind of record, so a repeat buyer can check each one.
What you record
- 1
Register members
Name, village and farm details, with an optional farm boundary drawn on a map.
- 2
Record procurement
Who delivered how much, when, and at what grade.
- 3
Aggregate into a lot
Combine deliveries into a batch that keeps the list of contributing farmers.
- 4
Process and dispatch
Cleaning, grading or drying, then the handover to the buyer as a custody transfer.
- 5
Share the trace page
Send the buyer the link or print the QR on bags and labels.
What your buyer sees
- The farmers and places behind the lot
- Procurement, processing and dispatch steps in order
- Quality reports and certificates you attach
- A blockchain fingerprint for each confirmed record
What IndiTrace does not do. IndiTrace doesn't submit records to government portals such as APEDA's TraceNet, and it doesn't certify produce. It keeps your lot records and shows them to buyers.
Questions
Can our field staff record procurement on a phone?
Yes. IndiTrace is a web app that works in mobile browsers, so there is nothing to install.
Can we add farm boundaries?
Yes. You can draw each farm’s boundary on a map when you add or edit the farmer.
Can we export member and batch data?
Yes. From Reports you can download batches and active farmers as CSV files.
Do you help with setup?
Yes. Book a free 30-minute walkthrough from the contact page and we will go through your first commodity with you.
