Abstract

In recent years, food safety events occur because of epizooty. Many countries build food traceability systems to solve these problems. However, the current food traceability system must be executed by paper work and need a lot of manpower. It also cannot trace and track back the origin and destination of food. Due to the fact that RFID technology can trace object, therefore, it can solve these problems. The research method integrates RFID technologies on the food produce traceability system. Using RFID technology will be easy to trace each object, not only for the goods lots. RFID technology can also record all events automatically and acquire the information about the food production by handhold devices. The research result of this paper is providing an integrated tactility system for the entire food supply chain by RFID technology. The benefit of this research can trace the food production, and let consumers get the complete food production information to choose and buy the safety food.
