System and method for the determination of produce shelf life
Last updated:
Abstract:
A system and a method for the determination of product shelf life in a supply chain environment are discussed. The system receives periodic readings from various sensors that are associated with a shipment of produce. The system determines ambient deviations throughout the supply chain for temperature, humidity and ethylene. The system determines a product shelf life based on a calculated sensitivity and exposure to temperature, humidity, and ethylene. The system determines a remaining shelf life based on the determined product shelf life, and generates an event based on the remaining shelf life meeting a threshold. The system updates an indication of the remaining shelf life on a graphical interface for action.
