Introduction: Zhejiang Ocean and fishery bureau put forward that we should pay attention to the quality and safety management of aquatic products with the scientific concept of development On the afternoon of September 2, the conference on the safety of animal derived food exported from Zhejiang Province to the European Union organized by Zhejiang provincial government came out From August 31, EU Member States officially approved the export of animal derived products such as marine shrimp, cultured shrimp and cultured fish from China to the European Union However, the original ban was triggered by the export of chloramphenicol in shrimp in January 2002, which has lasted for more than two years The decision marks the end of the EU's two-year ban on imports of shrimp and farmed fish In addition to poultry products that have not been lifted, most of the animal derived products, such as fish, shrimp, royal jelly, honey, rabbit meat, have been fully restored to export to the EU Earlier, on July 16, the European Union passed a resolution to lift the ban on the import of animal derived food such as shrimp and cultured fish According to the reporter, China is a big exporter of animal origin products, especially Zhejiang, a famous province of aquatic products and honey export The price of aquatic products exported to the EU is higher than other international markets, and there is no quota limit The lifting of EU ban will be another good opportunity for Zhejiang aquaculture enterprises to vigorously develop the EU market On September 2, 31 of the 37 export enterprises in Zhejiang Province who came to attend the conference were aquatic products export enterprises Relevant people also analyzed that the EU lifted the ban on most animal derived food in China, and the biggest impact on Zhejiang enterprises was the lifting of the ban on sea shrimp products The reporter learned from Zhejiang Ocean and Fishery Bureau that, although it has been specially renovated for more than two years, at present, none of Zhejiang's many fishery enterprises has actually started to export to the European Union In the future, a number of mature enterprises will resume exporting to the European Union as soon as possible Representatives from enterprises said they were confident in the lifting of the ban and the resumption of exports, but acknowledged that this was both an opportunity and a challenge Because the EU has raised the technical standards while lifting the ban, which means raising the technical threshold The EU has been very strict in food safety It is not only required that the processing enterprises or fishing and processing ships exported by China must pass the examination of the European Union and be registered, but also required that each batch of products must be issued with the inspection and quarantine certificate by the inspection and quarantine agency of China before they can be imported Yu Yongyue, deputy director of Zhejiang Ocean and Fishery Bureau, said at the meeting that the marine and fishery departments should strengthen the management of quality and safety sources of export aquatic products, do a good job in the registration and management of export aquatic product farms, effectively organize and implement the monitoring of drug retention and the monitoring and reporting of aquatic epidemic diseases, and do a good job in the evaluation of the monitoring of drug residues and the monitoring and reporting of aquatic epidemic diseases Work The quality and safety of aquatic products is of great importance, which is related to the rise and fall of the whole industry and the health of the people We must bear in mind the painful lesson of the EU ban in January 2002, and pay attention to the quality and safety management of aquatic products with a scientific development concept According to Chang tongjiachao, director of Fishery Department of Zhejiang Ocean and Fishery Bureau, the news of lifting the ban is good news for Zhejiang Aquatic products export and full affirmation for the two and a half years of special renovation, which shows that Zhejiang Aquatic products have reached a higher level in quality Liu Dingkang, deputy director of the Fisheries Department of the Bureau, also introduced that since two years ago, the quality standard requirements and testing of domestic aquatic products have been stricter than that of export products, which shows that the quality of aquatic products consumed by domestic consumers has been at the same level as that consumed by EU consumers A person from the general office of Zhejiang provincial government also proposed at the meeting that Zhejiang Inspection and quarantine, marine and fishery and other relevant departments and export enterprises should fully realize the importance and urgency of the inspection and quarantine supervision of animal derived food exported to the EU, ensure the safety and health of animal derived food exported to the EU, and take advantage of the opportunity of lifting the EU ban to expand the EU market Relevant analysts also pointed out that after the resumption of exports to the EU, the inspection and quarantine department required enterprises to take part in training and receive certificates of conformity, which added another work for enterprises, so it is still a process for enterprises to really export This person also suggested that the relevant departments should appropriately restore the priority export of one or two excellent enterprises on the premise of ensuring the quality and safety of products and meeting the EU standards, and then a large number of enterprises will keep up with each other in succession Without increasing the burden of enterprises, they should provide simple and smooth "green channel" services for the export of excellent enterprises in a scientific way, so as to export more and create more benefits.
