Seed Authenticity Engine

Kill the counterfeit.
Protect the genetics.

Register every genuine seed lot on a supply chain network anchored by Provenance Notary and the DID and VC Ledger. Each packet carries a QR code tied to an on-chain record, and Device Attestation confirms authorised production so a fake packet fails the scan.

The Foundation

The Execution Mechanics

Turn an easily faked packet into a scannable authenticity check that also protects breeder IP.

01.

Authentic Lot Registry

Register only genuine seed. Provenance Notary anchors each authorised lot to its variety, batch, and producer, so every legitimate packet has an on-chain twin a counterfeit cannot fake.

02.

Packet-Level QR

Bind identity to the packet. Each packet carries a unique QR code tied to its lot record, so a buyer scans at the point of sale and reads a valid provenance history or nothing at all.

03.

Authorised Production

Prove the seed was made legally. Device Attestation confirms production came from a licensed facility, catching lots that fall outside the breeder's authorised supply chain.

04.

IP Enforcement

Protect breeder rights. The DID and VC Ledger ties each variety to its rights holder and licence terms, making unauthorised reproduction and seed saving detectable against the record.

05.

Counterfeit Rejection

Make fakes fail loudly. A counterfeit packet carries no matching lot record, so the scan returns no provenance and flags the packet as unverified on the spot.

06.

Distributor Traceback

Find the source of fakes. When counterfeits appear, the custody chain identifies which distributor introduced unverified lots, so the offending seller is removed quickly.

The Seed Lifecycle

Follow a seed lot from authorised production to a farmer scanning the packet before planting.

Smart Contract Anatomy

Cerulea decomposes seed authenticity into modular contracts for lot identity, packet serialization, custody, and verification, so counterfeits fail and breeder IP stays enforceable.

Applicability Across the Spectrum

Seed authenticity is a horizontal capability. Here is how breeders, distributors, and farmers use one provenance network.

Seed Breeders

Protect variety IP and brand by anchoring every authorised lot, so unauthorised reproduction and seed saving are detectable against a licensed record.

Key Asset Types

  2. 2Authorised Lots
  3. 3Licence Terms

Distributors & Retailers

Prove that stock on the shelf is genuine and traceable, protecting reputation and quickly isolating any distributor that introduced counterfeit packets.

Key Asset Types

  1. 1Packet Serials
  2. 2Custody Records
  3. 3Stock Attestations

Farmers & Cooperatives

Scan a packet before planting and confirm authenticity and variety, avoiding the yield damage that counterfeit seed causes.

Network & Execution Architecture

Whether a breeder is bridging an ERP or a rural retailer is verifying from a phone, Cerulea routes both into one seed provenance network.

Track A: Breeder System Bridging

For seed companies on legacy ERP and production systems. Existing lot and production records are translated into on-chain provenance entries through the API gateway automatically.

Track B: Retail Field Verification

For rural retailers and farmers verifying directly. A mobile app scans each packet and resolves it against the ledger with no account required.

Technical Methodology

The legacy timeline reflects anti-counterfeit serialization benchmarks. Building lot registration, packet-level serialization, custody tracking, and a scan verification service for an average program takes a baseline of 7 months. Building the same architecture on Cerulea takes a baseline of 2 weeks, because Cerulea Studio visually translates your provenance and IP rules into pre-audited WebAssembly binaries and provisions the serialization and verification layers instantly.
