Abstract
Establishing agricultural product quality safety traceability platform and barcode system have become a worldwide trend. Bee product traceability platform that can be used to identify all aspects from farm to table has been laid out based on China law and global standards. An integrated bee product traceability system which involving all of the process along the supply chain can be applied to increase consumer confidence of bee products by making traceability data accessible to the consumer. In this bee product traceability platform, barcode system is of enormous significance and due to its applications in the all tracing stage of platform, standard barcode system architecture and infrastructure become very important.
In this paper, we study safety situation of bee product quality, research status of bee product traceability and barcode system. We construct bee product traceability platform by adopting agent technology, build barcode system by adopting GS1 global traceability standard as well as realize standardization bar-coding of bee product data content during four links: materials collection, purchase, processing and sales. Applying barcode system and traceability platform in bee products distribution process can realize bee products tracking and tracing, offer strong guarantee for Chinese bee product quality safety and improve competitiveness of bee products in international market.
