Adding traceability to food supply chains can make safer food market feasible.
The article explores how adding traceability to food supply chains with inspection protocols affects food safety and profits. The researchers found that the level of traceability influences whether safer food will be demanded by processors and delivered by producers. If traceability is too high, processors won't want safer food, and if it's too low, producers won't provide it. The feasibility of the market also depends on how sensitive the food inspection test is.
