“…Jin and Zhou [25] studied consumer interest in the information provided through food traceability systems by examining a national survey of Japanese consumers using a binary logit model and an ordered logit model. They found that the ratio of respondents who have accessed information through traceability systems is low.…”

“…According to Jin and Zhou [25]; gender, age, education, marital status and income are significantly related to the consumer interest to trace information through the traceability system in Japan. Their study show that young males and married respondents who have higher household incomes are more likely to trace information using the beef traceability system, whereas more educated females have a stronger desire to access more specific information related to fresh produce.…”

“…According to Takahashi et al [46] in a study that investigate the intent for the production and circulation of information in respect to vegetables, it was found that 74% of respondents need information on the production method, 64.8% need information on the pesticides (drugs) used in production, 61.3% need information on the harvest date, 39.8% want information on nutrition, 33.8% want to know about fertilizers (feeds) used in production, while only 24.8% want to know the name of the producer. Meanwhile, Jin and Zhou [25] found that the top three kinds of information that were needed by consumers are harvest date, production method, and production method certification. They also found that the name of the producer was the information of least interest.…”

Through a consumer survey in the Jabodetabek region, this paper examines the characteristics of consumers who prefer traceable fresh fruits and vegetables (FFV) in Indonesia and analyses the influencing factors that help explain why consumers purchase traceable FFV. A descriptive analysis, factor analysis, and binary logistic regression model were used to analyse the data. The results of this study show that respondents who consider buying the traceable product are lower than respondents who prefer to buy the ordinary product. This study also indicates that well-educated consumers and modern shoppers are more likely to buy traceable FFV. Although consumer income level has no significant impact on the traceable preference, the respondents who are more sensitive to the price are less likely to buy the traceable FFV. Another important result is the positive attitude towards traceable product, food safety concern, environmental concern, importance consideration of certification & product brand, and degree of trust. These are the factors which explain why consumers prefer to buy traceable FFV.

“…Th e ability to provide consumers with information on the country of origin requires a basic level of traceability, although does not necessarily imply full traceability throughout the supply chain to the farm [4]. Food traceability systems are an important means to provide food safety and quality information to consumers [6].…”

This study proposes an aquaculture system combining wireless sensors with the Internet of Things and expert system concepts. Built on the accumulated expertise and experience of professionals and researchers, the knowledge base advises aqua-farms on relevant farming practices. We hope that this system will conserve resources and secure product quality. The system also provides production data to consumers, thus facilitating information transparency and allowing consumers to purchase products with full knowledge and guarantee of food safety.

“…Regattieri et al (2007) focused on the ability of the traceability system to describe and to communicate product characteristics, taking into consideration confidentiality constraints. Traceability systems are used in various fields such as food industry (Jin and Zhou, 2014), quality control of products (Aung and Chang, 2014), improving supply chain visibility (Woo et al, 2009) and enhancing risk management in case of hazardous goods transportation (Planas et al, 2008). Bechini et al (2008) have proposed a generic traceability model for controlling products quality during transportation in food industry.…”

Enhancing container transportation traceability based on intelligent product and web-services: Model driven approach

Containers transportation involves various intermediate supply-chain actors.These containers are subject to myriad risks that can occur at any moment. In addition, the absence of a specialized stakeholder for securing containers flow and the lack of communication among actors impedes identifying responsibilities when an adverse event arises. For this purpose, we advocate the use of traceability system to enhance containers transportation security. This objective is achieved through enhancing systems interoperability to collect necessary information for identifying risks. Thus, we opted for urbanizing a traceability system to meet the new requirements related to risk management. In this paper, we propose the use of web-services to overcome the problems related to the heterogeneity of systems used by supply-chain stakeholders. Thus, we proposed a development process based on model driven architecture (MDA) to automate the code generation of these web-services. Moreover, we used the concept of intelligent product (IP) to propose an intelligent container able to communicate with external systems and to manage information related to its traceability. This solution is validated by a real case study.
