The mobile phone based technology involves a digital product verification tool that utilises the concept of a concealed number like the voucher number on the scratch card.
A sticker with the concealed number is glued on the seed package and one good thing about the sticker is that it is tamper-proof.
Any attempt to tamper with it
automatically leads to seal breakage.
The seed purchaser scratches to reveal the unique voucher(8digits) then proceeds to send the 8 digits to a toll free hotline code on the
label.Then waits for confirmation.
For a genuine product,the phone receives a response showing sensitive product details
