Abstract: Abstract The significance of means to feed the world population despite its steady increase in number cannot be overstated. Efficient and effective agricultural policies and their implementation along with advances in science and technology have together helped pave the way for supply to meet demand for food around the world. With the importance and constraints that are associated with food supply chains and the potential for security violations, food supply chains need to be secured to avoid unnecessary damage. Security of food supply chains is therefore of paramount importance. Recent advances in IoT and blockchain technology have facilitated security improvements in this general area. We consider food supply chains, with specific emphasis on the logistics aspect, and develop a framework with the incorporation of IoT and blockchain technology.
