Quality Safety Traceability Technologies for Cereal and Oil Products

Food companies and governments in many countries are putting increasing emphasis on establishment of food traceability systems. Food traceability has become an effective way in food safety management. Aimed at food safety problems of cereal and oil products existing in the production, processing, warehousing, distribution and other links in the supply chain, this paper firstly proposes a new traceability framework combines the information flow with critical control points and quality indicators. Then it introduces traceability database design and data access mode to realize the framework. In practice, Code design for tracing is a challenge, so this paper put forward a code system based on UCC/EAN-128 standard. Middleware and Electronic terminal design are also briefly introduced to accomplish traceability system for cereal and oil products.
