Doing a good job in the quarantine work of primary pig slaughterhouses and their solutions

With the continuous development of China's pig industry, quarantine work is becoming more and more important in pig breeding work.

At present, China's economic construction is developing rapidly, and the legal system is gradually improving.

Problems Existing in Quarantine Work in Primary Pig Slaughterhouses

Do not have a strong awareness of the quarantine law: the general self-employed will gradually develop into a slaughtering wholesaler, do not have a high cultural quality, and lack of legal awareness

The quality and operational skills of official veterinarians need to be improved: according to the relevant laws and regulations on pig slaughter and quarantine, official veterinarians in slaughterhouses should take their jobs seriously, but in actual work, some veterinarians lack a sense of responsibility and cannot follow the "Pig Slaughtering and Quarantine" requirements.

The slaughterhouse does not meet the requirements of animal epidemic prevention: many meat factories and food stations have been transformed into some grass-roots pig slaughterhouses.

The main body of quarantine law enforcement is illegal: The relevant pig epidemic prevention regulations stipulate that the quarantine work of pigs and their products is carried out by the official veterinarian of the animal health supervision agency

Outdated quarantine equipment in slaughterhouses: At present, the quarantine rooms of most slaughterhouses lack basic facilities, quarantine equipment and quarantine tools related to pig quarantine work

Post-slaughter simultaneous quarantine is a mere formality: the actual pig quarantine work lacks quarantine supervision funds, the post-slaughter quarantine jobs set up do not meet the prescribed requirements, and the equipment of grass-roots veterinarians also fails to meet the corresponding requirements, most of which are 1 or 2 Veterinarians carry out all post-mortem quarantine work.

Clenbuterol monitoring is not in place: Before slaughtering of live pigs, there is no rapid detection of "clenbuterol" in accordance with relevant regulations; relevant regulations require slaughtering enterprises to conduct self-inspection of "clenbuterol" on live pigs, but generally It cannot be operated according to the regulations; the test items are single, only clenbuterol hydrochloride is tested, but the detection of "clenbuterol" such as ractopamine and albuterol is ignored

Insufficient coordination between departments: At present, the animal husbandry department is mainly responsible for the slaughtering and quarantine of live pigs, while the inspection of meat products is mainly the responsibility of the slaughtering enterprises themselves, and the commercial department is responsible for slaughtering supervision of live pig slaughterhouses.

Comprehensive Measures for Strengthening Quarantine Work in Primary Pig Slaughterhouses

The slaughtering and quarantine work of live pigs plays a very important role in the work of raising pigs, which directly affects the health of the people

Vigorously publicize the importance of pig slaughtering and quarantine work to ensure that slaughtering and quarantine work can be carried out smoothly, and make full use of various media such as radio, television, and newspapers.
