Blockchain-IoT Integrated System for Automated Compliance in Dairy Logistics

Abstract

Maintaining product quality and regulatory standards in dairy transportation is difficult because dairy products spoil quickly and involve multiple handling stages. Conventional logistics systems are now highly dependent on manual supervision, which can lead to delays, inaccurate records and security issues. This paper presents an integrated Blockchain and IoT-based framework for automated compliance management in dairy logistics. IoT sensors continuously collect environmental data such as temperature, humidity and vehicle location during transportation and storage. The collected information is stored in a secured manner using blockchain technology to prevent any unauthorized modification. Smart contracts are used for automatic verification of compliance conditions and for the generation of alerts when abnormal conditions are detected. Experimental evaluation with simulated logistics data shows that the proposed framework enhances transparency, decreases compliance violations and improves monitoring efficiency compared to traditional monitoring approaches.
