California Cannabis Nursery uses blockchain technology to certify clones with batch certificates

In an effort to innovate and improve their products, Mendocino Clone Company (MCC) is joining the EMTRI project, a decentralized cannabis supply chain community.

“We believe that by joining the EMTRI decentralized community, we can provide an additional level of transparency and trust for our customers,” said Jed Davis, CEO of MCC.

What happened: Incorporating EMTRI’s Global Compliance Applications’ blockchain-based solution, MCC seeks to lead nursery members in the ecosystem to certify the authenticity, genetics and batch of each of the mother plants and clones for the 2023 season and beyond.

This movement allows MCC to document the initial stages of a cannabis plant’s journey to becoming a premium product for consumers based on the gram weight it flowers.

The program gives each mother plant and its offspring, known as clones, a “Batch Certificate” – a term coined by EMTRI’s founder Eric Kennedy. The certificate, a self-generated smart contract placed on each batch of clones, gives the clone its own unique identity block, created by the nursery and linked to the blockchain.

By verifying the authenticity of their clones as well as their genetic lineage through this innovative method, licensed growers who purchase cannabis clones from MCC will automatically qualify to unlock EMTRI Token rewards and receive a higher rate for participating in the blockchain project as “truth tellers”.

“We are excited to be at the forefront of the cannabis industry and be the first in the United States to adopt this cutting-edge technology in this way,” said Scott Zarnes, co-founder of EMTRI Corp and longtime cultivator. “We believe it has the potential to revolutionize the way the industry operates, and we are proud to be leading the charge.”

EMTRI tokens can be exchanged for US Digital Coin by accessing the Uniswap Decentralized Exchange (DEX) resulting in a passive income in DeFi’s global systems.

Starting in February, the first round of batch certificate clones will be made available with a feature release of MCC’s anticipated “Lemond Lung Slapper,” a first-generation seed genetic from breeding partner Mendocino Seed Company.
