Coconut trees to be geo-tagged to get pure toddy
The Morning Standard
|December 19, 2023
IN the spirit of the times, toast it in the knowledge that technology is by your side. In a move to prevent the adulteration of toddy, the Kerala University of Digital Sciences, Innovation and Technology is geo-tagging coconut trees in Palakkad’s Chittoor, considered the hub of the state’s toddy production.
Digital tagging helps identify individual trees from which the toddy has been sourced.
The university, also known as Digital University Kerala (DUK), also plans to tag the vehicles transporting the toddy, thereby ensuring that the product is not contaminated at any stage of its origin and supply chain -- from the tree top to the lip. “We have geo-tagged close to a million trees and mapped them to the outlets via blockchain,” Saji Gopinath, vice chancellor of DUK, told this newspaper.
