CONTEXT: China is actively promoting traceability systems in the agricultural sector, yet widespread adoption  among farmers remains limited. As farmers play a pivotal role in these systems, their perceptions significantly  shape their participation in them.  
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study is to explore the differences in farmers' perceptions of the technological  characteristics of the traceability system.  
METHODS: Based on the diffusion of innovations theory, this study uses the Q methodology to analyze and  categorize farmers' perceptions of the technological characteristics of the traceability system.  
RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS: Research has identified the presence of four distinct groups of farmers with  different perceptions of technological characteristics. These groups respectively maintain a positive view of the  traceability system, recognize its potential in environmental conservation, emphasis the importance of authentic  traceability information, and expect governmental support. However, they generally perceive participation in the  traceability system as incompatible with their abilities, knowledge, and available resources. Moreover, they  generally recognize the traceability system's role in protecting consumer health.
