Reporter's secret visit to feed market

Introduction: according to the manager of product R & D Department of a feed factory in Guangdong Province, it is not only impossible but also out of date to rely on additives to increase the weight of pigs He said that organic arsenic additive can be used as medicine, but excessive addition will cause pigs to be in sub-health state] k8q On March 30, a large feed factory appeared in front of reporters of the first financial daily about six minutes after a commercial van drove from the Jiulong Town Government terminal to the mountain forest in Conghua, Guangzhou At this time, the factory machines were roaring and the Yellow raw materials piled up on the ground were waiting to be processed in the pushed machine K8q was also in early March, when Jiaxing dead pig throwing into the river triggered a series of chain reactions One clue pointed to "arsenic pig" pollution After a micro blog posted a paper on soil pollution of "arsenic pig" from South China Agricultural University in 2006, the problem of arsenic containing additive pollution in pig feed began to be known to the public Although k8q published a notice on the website of the Ministry of agriculture on March 20 that arsenic was not detected in 30 floating dead pig tissue samples salvaged from the Huangpu River and the upstream, up to now, the "arsenic pig" pollution rumors derived from the dead pig throwing into the river are still foggy K8q is the same In the past two weeks, from this feed factory, our reporter disguised as the owner of the pig farm From the source of the "arsenic pig" pollution rumors, the feed industry began to conduct a series of secret investigations K8q reporter survey shows that the use of arsenic containing additives is not as serious as the rumors, but does not rule out the possibility of excessive use of arsenic containing additives in small pig farms More insiders say that the use of additives to increase pig weight is even "outdated" practice K8q as for the test results of the above paper on the soil polluted by the feces of "arsenic pig", our reporter's investigation shows that the paper is more likely to be a magnified conclusion, because at present, there is no condition to support more detailed and comprehensive investigation and research in China, as well, the soil pollution is still a mystery Compared with the conclusion of the paper, another problem that needs to be paid more attention is the supervision of feed market The existence of regulatory short board also provides a living space for small-scale feed factories and even pig farms to illegally use arsenic containing feed.
