The Information Key Technologies for Quality and Safety Monitor and Management of Agricultural Products

This paper studied on the information key technologies which were applied in quality & safety monitor and management of agricultural products and pointed out that the important role of the information technologies. The rapid detection technology included of three aspects: quality inspection (machine vision, near infrared spectroscopy, electronic nose etc), pesticide residue detection (ELISA, biosensor and Raman spectra etc), and producing environmental monitoring (mainly used x-ray rapid measurement of soil heavy metals etc), using of these technologies, some advanced new detection systems and devices to be developed gradually. Referred to auto identification technology, the common technologies of bar codes and RFID were introduced. They were widely used in the building of an agricultural products quality & safety traceability management system, which could cover production, processing, circulation and consumption etc whole process, and is helpful in agricultural products recall. In the system or platform of quality and safety agricultural products, network technology and database technology were applied to supply and demand inquiry, tracking and other function.
