Traceability

Star Anise

Star Anise from AgrEco is sourced through a fully traceable spice network, where every star-shaped pod can be followed from tree to cleaned, graded, and packed product with digital proof of origin and processing. This extends the AgrEco promise of “Food You Can Trust. Farmers You Empower.” to an aromatic spice widely used in culinary, beverage, and wellness formulations.

Digital Traceability

From identified farms

Star anise is procured from mapped plantations and smallholder forest-fringe systems, each registered with a unique farm or producer group ID on the AgrEco platform. Data on flowering and fruiting cycles, input use, and harvest practices is recorded to ensure residue-free, sustainable production in sensitive agro-climatic zones.
Drying, cleaning, grading, and packing operations are documented lot-wise so every sack or carton of star anise can be traced back to specific growing regions and farmer groups.

Quality Transparency

Verified Organic Practices and Farmer Impact

Assurance for institutional buyers

Institutional buyers, spice brands, beverage companies, and wellness product manufacturers receive structured digital records on star anise origin, quality grades, and residue-free compliance, simplifying audits and label claims.
These traceability records support ESG and responsible sourcing requirements while reducing risk in supply chains that depend on scattered star anise-producing communities.

Impact for farmers

Digital traceability helps star anise farmers and collectors demonstrate consistent quality and responsible harvesting, enabling access to higher-value domestic and export markets.
By making each producer group and region visible in the value chain, AgrEco’s system converts data into better price realization, long-term buyer relationships, and more stable livelihoods for star anise-growing communities.
