The purpose of this paper is to present the results of a pilot project implementation of PLM solution based on blockchain technology in the ancient grains Italian Industry. After a literature review on previous experience of blockchain technology in the food Industry, a case study analysis has been done to identify the actors along the supply chain of durum wheat for pasta production, as well as to study the main regulations for wheat production. Moreover, possible weaknesses and strengths in the application of the blockchain for the ancient wheat supply chain have been highlighted. Finally, the main evidences of the pilot project are reported and a set of information systems able to manage the product lifecycle have been identified. The paper provides valuable insights to companies that are trying to implement such solution in the food Industry.
