The purpose of this paper is to argue the current approaches and its issues of confirming the food safety and its assurance on the agricultural producing area and farm level. It is hard to introduce the production record for farmers without any incentives or enforcement by low on farm level. However, the improvement of livestock management could be an effective matter to introduce it. Based on the analysis of dairy milk recording data, the number of somatic cell of the groups that has high producing dairy cows, is lower than that of low producing dairy cows. Reducing the number of the somatic cell is the result of increasing the milk yield. The milk pricing system of Hokuren Agricultural Cooperative makes milk farmers reduce the number of somatic cell in their milk. Adequate incentive system has been needed to introduce the food safety assurance system on agricultural producing areas and farm level.
