Abstract: Embodiments provide for distributed transaction-based provenance tracking of agricultural data, secured access to authorized user accounts, auditability of the data, and transactional oversight of the data when exchanged between user accounts. A distributed ledger network including a primary node and a plurality of secondary nodes can store transactions generated based on various operations on or associated with agricultural data, including the certification of select portions of agricultural data collected by a data collection device, commands received from client devices associated with user accounts purchasing or licensing the agricultural data, and detected attempts to access the agricultural data, among other things.
