Agriculture is an economic base of several countries, including Brazil. Technological advances in this sector happen daily, thus collaborating to a more modern, efficient and sustainable agriculture. These advances have also impacted important aspects of this sector, particularly in those that ensure transparency, reliability and information security. Upon the usage of technologies such as IoT and Blockchain, the agricultural sector began to take advantage of the interconnection between monitoring and actuating devices, as well as aspects of reliability in data storage. Along with the growing number of studies and research in this area, several benefits can arise for smart farming and academia. For this purpose, an architecture was developed, integrating IoT and Blockchain technologies. This platform performs data monitoring on farms, fields or greenhouses based on smart farming techniques. Furthermore, the information can be accessed from any location with internet connection. The storage is designed in a decentralized manner to ensure the integrity and reliability of the data. Additionally, a web application was also developed to allow users to access and manage the system. Experiments performed on the platform validated its behavior in environments with higher processing loads. The analysis of the obtained results certified the solution as scalable and apt to support a real-world application.
