Hanoi: 100% of the agricultural products to be traced origins by 2020
Tuan Minh 17:05, 2018/01/18
Hanoi will use quick response (QR) code plastering application to trace the origins of agricultural products in an effort to ensure consumer health.
The plan aims to improve the efficiency of state management of food safety, strengthen management capacity and control the quality and traceability of agricultural products in Hanoi.

Along with the pilot application of QR codes to control the origin of fruits, the city will also apply a pilot authentication code against fake goods and use QR codes to trace the sources of some products such as vegetables, meats and seafood.

The city will also set up regulations and identification codes to establish a safe food chain in the city and a data centre to enable internet access to check product information with smartphones or devices set up at agricultural product shops.

After the pilot, in 2019 the QR code application will be expanded next year to use for traceability of other agricultural products, production facilities, farms, slaughterhouses, large-scale processing establishments, supermarkets, wholesale markets and market management boards.

In 2020, all chains of production in the city will apply QR codes to trace origins and provide transparency for consumers. At the same time, the rate of traceability by QR code in small-scale production and business establishments will increase by 30-50 percent.

It also aims to reduce administrative procedures, management costs and human resources, save time and raise the effectiveness of the fight against smuggling and trade fraud.

The City People’s Committee assigns the Hanoi Department of Agriculture and Rural Development to coordinate with related units to set up plans to maintain and develop the application of QR codes for product traceability in the city.
