Gıda ve Yem için Hızlı Alarm Sistemi (RASFF), gıda güvenliğinin tespiti için hızlı bilgi alışverişi sağlayan bir sistemdir. Mevcut çalışmanın amacı, RASFF portalında yer alan 2021 yılı gıda ve gıda ile temas eden madde kaynaklı bildirimlerin ayrıntılı bir raporunun hazırlanmasıdır. İnternet ortamındaki ilgili veriler konu, bildirim kaynağı, bildirim türü, ürün kategorisi, bildirimde bulunan ülke, risk derecesi, dağıtım bilgileri ve uygulanan yaptırımlar açısından sınıflandırılarak analiz edilmiştir. Toplam 4438 bildirim tespit edilmiştir ve ürünlerde en sık görülen tehlike pestisitler olmuştur. Alarm, sınır iadesi, dikkat gerektiren bilgi, takip gerektiren bilgi ve haber bildirim türleri sırasıyla 1455, 1433, 972, 564 ve 13 bildirimden oluşmaktadır. En sık bildirimde bulunan ülke Almanya olurken, onu İspanya izlemiştir. Hakkında en çok bildirimde bulunulan ürün kategorisi meyve ve sebzeler olmuştur ve bildirimlerin büyük bir bölümü ciddi risk derecesine sahiptir.
