Core Components

1. User Blockchain System

Each user operates their own blockchain that records:

Plant registrations
Growth updates
Transport events
Harvest records
Seed saving activities

// User blockchain structure
interface UserBlockchain {
  userId: string;
  publicKey: string;
  chain: PlantBlock[];
  transportChain: TransportBlock[];
  demandPreferences: DemandPreference[];
}

2. Master Ledger

A global ledger that:

Indexes all user blockchains
Maintains cross-references for plant lineage
Validates chain integrity
Calculates network-wide statistics

3. Demand Forecasting Engine

Predicts demand based on:

Historical consumption patterns
Seasonal trends
Weather forecasts
Consumer preferences
Regional availability

4. Carbon Calculator

Tracks environmental impact:

Transport emissions
Growing resource usage
Packaging lifecycle
Waste generation
