Ministry of Food and Drugs Safety (MFDS) encompasses all food safety policies and promotions. There are also several food safety related institutions, such as, NAQS (agricultural products safety inspection), KOFHAS and KOLPHAS (HACCP Certification), NFSI and KAPE (traceability system), QIA (quarantine and livestock epidemics prevention). Food Safety Basic Act and Food Sanitation Act are two major laws on food safety. Agricultural Products Quality Control Act, Livestock Products Sanitation Act, Environmentally-friendly Agriculture Fostering Act, Act on the Traceability of Cattle and Beef, etc. play an important role as well. Agro-food certification system includes Environmentally-friendly Agro-Livestock Products Certification, GAP, HACCP, and Traceability System. Environmentally-friendly Agricultural Products Certification is classified into organic, non-pesticide, and low-pesticide for agricultural products and organic and non-antibiotics for livestock products. To develop environmentally-friendly livestock industry, direct payment subsidies have paid since 2009. HACCP certification initiated from 1995 for food and from 1997 for livestock products. Mandatory HACCP in the slaughterhouses has been implemented since 2003. Beef traceability system initiated in 2008 by mandatory system. However, many issues are at hand to solve to improve food safety in Korea, such as, rational division of food safety costs among producers, consumers and the government, harmonization of closed HACCP and opened traceability system, enhancing precautionary food safety system, developing low cost safety control models for the smaller food operations.
