This study analyzed the present situation of Good Agricultural Practice (GAP) in Hiroshima Prefecture from a viewpoint of food chain approach. FAO/WHO stresses that the entire process of “farm to table” should be managed to secure food safety, this by adopting process conformity methods like GAP. Although Japan has been delayed in adopting a food chain approach, the number of farms certified as GAP has increased. Case studies on some selected farms were conducted to identify the successful factors of implementing GAP. The farms studied achieved food safety, workers' health and welfare, environmental management, to a certain level. However, the value of GAP certified products was found to not be evaluated properly by the present market mechanism.
