Detailed View of Food Product (Mushroom) Using 2D Barcode

Abstract

Product life management (PLM) is a process that involves the planning, design, development, and management of a product from its inception to the end of its life cycle. In the context of mushroom production, PLM can be used to track and optimize various aspects of the mushroom growing process, including seed procurement, cultivation, harvesting, and distribution. One tool that can be utilized as a part of a PLM system is a quick response (QR) code, which is a type of barcode that can be scanned with a smartphone or other device to access information about a product. By using QR codes, mushroom growers and distributors can easily track the location and status of each batch of mushrooms throughout the production process. This information can be used to optimize the growing conditions and improve the quality and safety of the mushrooms. QR codes can also be used to provide consumers with information about the source and history of the mushrooms they purchase, enhancing transparency and trust in the product. Overall, the implementation of a PLM system utilizing QR codes has the potential to improve efficiency, quality, and sustainability in the mushroom industry.
