academic and industrial concerns. Blockchain
technology with several platforms available combined with the
internet-of-things system has grown significantly in improving traceability
in the supply chain area, providing openness, transparency, neutrality,
reliability, and security to all members. The food traceability system is
addressed through Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP) testing
that meets the standard criteria for physical, microbiological, chemical, and
visual observations. These approaches are argued capable of covering the
drawbacks of a centralized system that is vulnerable to collapse since a
single point of failure (SPoF) can lead the whole
design to collapse. However, adopting blockchain
technology instantly without considering specific parameters can negatively
affect the system. Therefore, in this paper, we elaborate on the critical
points to be considered in adopting blockchain into
a food safety environment which refers to the HACCP-based cooperative model.
This paper also notes and explores an empirical investigation of the
decentralized HACCP model with several techniques, including the pros and
cons. Finally, we recapitulate the essential details to consider in
developing blockchain technology in food safety
systems. Keywords: Blockchain;
