Food safety calls for RFID security technology to seize the opportunity

In recent years, food safety has frequently occurred. With the frequent exposure of foreign mad cow disease, foot-and-mouth disease to China's “Nongfu Springs Frost Gate” and melamine re-emergence, food safety has once again aroused public concern. How to ensure food safety, establish a sound food safety supervision and management system, and strengthen food safety monitoring are urgently placed in front of government regulatory departments, enterprise quality control departments, and enterprise managers. Food manufacturers have their own tricks, among which RFID security technology for tracking and tracing foods bears the brunt, and has become one of the technical defense methods favored by manufacturers.

RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) is a non-contact identification technology that belongs to the security industry. It uses non-contact two-way data communication to identify targets through wireless radio frequency. A typical radio frequency identification (RFID) system typically consists of RFID tags, readers, and computer systems. Every commodity in the world can be represented by a unique code, that is, every RFID tag is.

Today, when food safety management issues are imminent, RFID is extremely important in the food chain. From the field to the long chain of the table, the problems in each link may bring hidden dangers of food safety: various biological hazards caused by bacteria, fungi, viruses, parasites, pesticide residues, hormone residues, heavy metals exceeding the standard Chemical hazards such as the use of additives and preservatives, as well as various types of malicious production that are prohibited from exceeding the standard. Due to the many links, the authority of the regulatory authorities is difficult to clearly define, which will make it difficult to trace the source of the problem once a food safety incident occurs. It is impossible to investigate the responsibility.


In a certain sense, RFID technology has provided a traceability model for “food-to-table” for food safety, starting from the extraction of public traceability factors of consumer care in the supply chain of production, processing, distribution, consumption, etc. The food safety information database, once problems are found, can be effectively controlled and recalled according to traceability, and protect the legitimate rights and interests of consumers from the source.

The use of RFID traceability management system, in addition to making the traceability of record files more timely, real-time and convenient, can also provide complete and transparent management in the food supply chain, ensuring visual control, monitoring and traceability of food safety throughout the process; Potential hazards can be effectively assessed and provide a basis for scientific warnings.

How big is China's RFID security market?

In recent years, RFID technology in developed countries has been widely used in many fields such as society, economy, national defense, etc., showing great development potential and application space in many fields of national economy such as manufacturing, food safety production and people's daily life. It will have a wide-ranging impact on the improvement of the level of informatization of the entire society and the strengthening of national defense security.

According to Chen Wei, director of the Informationization Promotion Department of the Ministry of Information Industry, the scale of China's RFID market has reached 3.69 billion yuan in 2005. In 2006, this figure increased significantly to nearly 6 billion yuan. According to industry experts, China's RFID market will grow steadily in the next few years, and will reach $5 billion by 2011, but some industry experts are more optimistic about this, and believe that it will reach 118.1 in 2011. One hundred million U.S. dollars. In any case, there are indications that the development of China's RFID market has accelerated since the end of 2005. Government departments, food safety, logistics, retail, industry, health care, SMEs and the consumer industry are all areas of development potential. According to IDTechEx, China will be the main battlefield for the explosive growth of the RFID market in the next 10 years.

RFID challenges in the field of food safety production

In the food safety traceability system, RFID can quickly, automatically and accurately collect various information under the premise of not affecting the efficiency of production operations, so as to ensure the possibility and effectiveness of traceability, and strictly implement every aspect of food production. Residents "rest assured". As an emerging technology, it has its development advantages, but it also has its limitations.

Food safety traceability involves the entire industry chain, and is limited by many factors such as environment and cost. Various automatic identification technologies are needed throughout the tracking process, including UHF (Ultra High Frequency) RFID technology and HF ( High-frequency) RFID technology, including bar code technology, how to scientifically and rationally deploy different technologies in different links, and at the same time enable these different technologies to play their own advantages and integrate each other, it needs a good Complete automatic identification technology application solution. The quality of this solution directly affects the effectiveness and reliability of food safety traceability.

At the same time, all automatic identification technologies can only play a role based on the management information system. To achieve the tracking of the entire industrial chain process, it is necessary to establish a complete set of interconnections that can cover the entire industrial chain and conform to the food industry. Characteristic information systems, including: Production Management System (MES), Warehouse Management System (WMS), and Supply Chain Management System (SCM). This will be a huge system engineering and will be a serious difficulty and challenge.

Trend: Food safety collective awareness and policy promote the broad prospects of RFID

According to the survey, there are more than 40,000 medium-sized food manufacturers in China, and the number of small-scale manufacturers far exceeds this. The promulgation of the "Food Safety Law of the People's Republic of China" and the public's emphasis on food safety issues continue to heat up, and RFID is bound to be widely used by food manufacturers. Therefore, RFID enterprises should grasp the food safety collective awareness and policy promotion, promote and improve the application of RFID technology in the field of food safety management, research and develop core technologies, focus on tackling key issues, and finally form a food safety management solution with independent intellectual property rights in China. To build a food safety traceability management system that suits China's national conditions. Whoever seizes the opportunity in food safety monitoring and produces products that meet the demand is bound to occupy a place in the security RFID industry.
