I have developed digital track-and-trace technology that enables cotton harvesters to certify the origins of their cotton and ensure it is free from human rights violations. ➤ THE PROBLEMThe cotton industry grapples with significant traceability and transparency challenges. These complexities hinder the verification of ethically sourced cotton, ensuring it is free from human rights abuses such as forced or child labor. Alarmingly, in countries where about 70% of the world's cotton is still manually harvested, forced and child labor are distressingly common. Children as young as five years old are often recruited and compelled to work in cotton fields or ginning factories, undermining the integrity of the textile industry.➤ THE SOLUTIONOur Silverleafe Digital Ag Track & Trace (DATT) technology revolutionizes cotton traceability by issuing a digital birth certificate for every batch of machine-harvested Cotton. This system ensures each batch is traceable from the field to the final garment, enhancing transparency and accountability across the supply chain.The DATT system can be adapted to any John Deere cotton picker worldwide. It uses RFID technology to secure supply chains and verify the use of Conflict-Free Cotton. Our patented technology not only tracks cotton from field to fabric but also guarantees that it meets stringent ethical standards and is free from human rights violations. ➤ YOU GET- Digital Verification: Confirms cotton is machine-harvested, ensuring adherence to global ethical standards.- Human Rights Compliance: Certifies that cotton harvesting is free from human rights violations.- Digital Traceability: Provides a Digital Birth Certificate for each batch of cotton, establishing a digital chain of custody from field to factory.-Audit Enablement: Equips independent auditors with the necessary proof to verify the traceability and integrity of the cotton. ➤ PROVEN PERFORMANCEOur technology has been beta-tested in 2022 and 2023 across cotton fields in Uzbekistan, the USA, and Australia, showcasing its robustness and market readiness. ➤ FOR YOU IT MEANS Seamless proof of conflict-free cotton with every harvest.➤ HOW TO GET IN TOUCHConnect with me here on LinkedInEmail: d.patterson@silverleafe.com
