Food is the basic and most important human consumption goods. Food safety is the foundation for protecting people's life and health; it's a foundamental human right. Food safety is also an important symbol of national economic development and people's quality of life. In recent years, domestic and international food safety incidents occur again and again, which warns us that food safety has become a major issue with an effect on the overall situation. People become increasingly concerned about it. Food safety has a more extensive and thorough impact on economy, society and people's daily life.This dissertation does a comparative investigation of domestic and international food supply chain quality and safety management studies, and comes to a conclusion that to enhance food quality and safety administration we must abandon the traditional implementation of sub-regulation on fragmented supply chains, but also we must abandon the traditional supply chain model which is too long to be conducive to unified regulation. It should be based on international agriculture and food safety standards, through management innovation to promot the effective integration of information technology, modern agriculture and food supply chain. It should also be based on Global Data Synchronization Network and internet of things techonology to build up food supply chain safety management solutions, including supply chain traceability system. On the whole, by unifying supply chain data standards, setting up infrastructure information platform and developing data mining applications to build an "advanced warning, forward tracking and backward tracing" food quality and safety administration system.On that basis, for the first time this disseration presents the controlled region based administration theory and methods for quality and safety of food supply chain, and further points out that the majority of international supply chain research focuses on the composition of the supply chain and financial issues of multi-level inventory supply chain. They mainly solve the operational efficiency problem of supply chain, but rarely consider the quality control function of supply chain as a strategic management system. This dissertation comes up with the opinion that supply chain management is evolving to two strategic goals: one pays attention to cash cycle and leads to a financial system of supply chain step by step; the other concerns about quality control of each node and gradually forms a supply chain quality control system. Moreover, with the introduction of food supply chain risk control methods based upon internet of things technology, it's going to become a reality that the quality and safety of food supply chain in a controlled region is administrated by a"third party". Thus, the administration system of food quality and safety in the controlled region will improve to a significantly higher level.In addition, controlled region based administration theory of food supply chain will provide an industrial and economic foundation platform for the countryside urbanization in the controlled region, the agricultural production way, the change of farmer life style and so on. According to the quality and safety specification and low-carbon economy request of the controlled region, the peasants must live concentratedly and ecologically, and so the countryside urbanization way and the farmer life style will have a fundamental transformation. At the same time, the agricultural operating type must further evolve to a more specialized cooperative economy deferring to the market orientation, and this evolution is based on the existing Household Contract Responsibility System. It will further deepen the countryside political, economical, social and cultural reform and development. All of the mentioned statements are theoretical and practical significance that this thesis brings to the administrative areas of the rural economic reform, and is also a kind of methodology of innovation.Finally, this dissertation takes the case of the China-Singapore Food Park of Jilin Province to do empirical studies applying the controlled region based administration theory and methods for quality and safety of food supply chain. As a resut, it has designed a comparatively systematic food quality and safety administration solution for the China-Singapore Food Park of Jilin Province.
