Ministry of Agriculture Talks about European "Poison Eggs": Food Safety Without Borders Strengthens Control of Pesticides and Veterinary Drugs

The Ministry of Agriculture held a press conference this morning. Deputy Minister of Agriculture Product Quality and Safety Supervision of the Ministry of Agriculture, Jinzhong, said that although European egg products have not gained access to China, food safety has no borders and is aimed at Europe. In the case of discovery, China will strengthen the control of pesticides and veterinary drugs and prevent them from happening, ensuring the quality and safety of agricultural products from the source of production.

Jinzhong pointed out that with the acceleration of international trade in agricultural products and globalization, food safety has no borders. In particular, the recent “poisonous egg” incident in Europe is actually a fipronil contaminated egg. According to the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine, in Europe, there is currently no one country’s egg products that are allowed to enter the Chinese government, which means that no European eggs have entered the Chinese mainland market.

According to Jinzhong, "fipronil" itself is a pesticide, not a veterinary drug. According to the assessment of the toxicity of this pesticide by the Joint Expert Committee of WHO and FAO, it is of moderate toxicity and is mainly used for the control of soil pests and hygienic insecticides. The management of pesticides in China is very strict under the pesticide management regulations, agricultural product quality and safety laws, and food safety laws. Unregistered products are not allowed to be put into use. There is also a strict licensing system for the production and management of pesticides. Use of fipronil is strictly prohibited. In poultry farming.

Jinzhong said that the Ministry of Agriculture will strengthen the management of agricultural input products in light of the findings in Europe, with emphasis on strengthening the control of pesticides and veterinary drugs, ensuring the safety of agricultural inputs and preventing abuses. At the same time, the supervision and inspection of production behavior shall be strengthened to ensure the standardization of production behaviors, prevent them from happening, ensure the quality and safety of agricultural products from the source of production, and protect the health of the public.
