In 1996, the idea of "food supply chain management" was proposed by some scholars like Zuurbier and it was successfully applied in countries like France and America which are advanced in agriculture. The successful application made some specialists in developing countries in agriculture pay much attention on food supply chain management. According to the strength of different level in different sectors, we divide the food supply chain into four kinds, dumb bell, T, symmetrical, mixture. Different countries will focus on different sector according to its own economic level and thus we get different kind of food supply chain management.With the improvement on infrastructure about food industry and many problemson food safety, food supply chain management has got more and more attention in China. As we all know, with the improvement on life quality, consumers'need on food has changed a lot. Under the condition of meeting consumers' needs, there comes much more problems on food supply, such as the confusion on management of raw materials suppliers, the difficulty on optimization of food logistics because of wider scope, without common standards on food quality, the lay behind of the infrastructure on logistics especially some frozen logistics, the abuse of some food additives and food preservatives.According to the relationship on the reason of food safety and the sectors of food supply chain, the right on supervision from some government departments, we design a model named supply chain supervision filter. Under the supervision of related seven departments on raw material sector, production sector, transportation sector, whole seller sector and sales sector, we can assure the last food safety on consumption.At last, we should also consider the total cost on food supply chain on the precondition of food safety, combine the direct supervision with the indirect ones in order to get the composite results.
