摘要

基于区块链的可追溯系统为提高食品安全提供了巨大的潜力。本研究调查了消费者对基于区块链的新鲜猪肉可追溯系统的偏好和支付意愿（WTP），并研究了对认证机构的偏好。数据是通过在中国5个城市进行的在线选择实验收集的。结果显示，基于区块链的可追溯系统具有良好的偏好和更高的WTP，信息干预组的平均WTP高于对照组。最高的WTP是区块链食品可追溯系统与政府认证相结合。这些发现为促进发展中国家基于区块链的食品可追溯性提供了有价值的见解，并对食品安全监管和消费者保护具有重要的政策意义。

Consumer preferences and willingness to pay for a blockchain-based food traceability system: a case study of fresh pork in China

Blockchain-based traceability systems offer significant potential for enhancing food safety. This study investigated consumer preferences and willingness to pay (WTP) for a blockchain-based traceability system for fresh pork, and examined preferences for certification agencies. Data were gathered through an online choice experiment conducted in 5 Chinese cities. The results show favorable preferences and higher WTP for a blockchain-based traceability system, with the information intervention group demonstrating a higher mean WTP than the control group. The highest WTP is observed for a blockchain food traceability system combined with government certification. These findings provide valuable insights for promoting blockchain-based food traceability in developing countries and hold important policy implications for food safety regulation and consumer protection.
