Recently, the media broke the news that a large chicken supplier added drugs to feed broiler chickens in the feed, 45 days to get them out of the slaughter. When the news came out, public opinion was in an uproar. Many people equate “instant chicken” with “drug ripening” and “unsafe”; while in the view of food experts, “instant chicken But in the opinion of experts in the food field, “instant chicken” represents “scientific breeding” and the progress of breeding technology. Compared to the “instant chicken”, the farming industry abuse of antibiotics caused by the “antibiotic chicken” should be more concerned. The “quick success” has become the industry’s “routine” Zhu Yi, an associate professor at the School of Food Science and Nutritional Engineering at China Agricultural University, said in an interview with this reporter that 45 days to raise a 2.5 kg chicken is a “normal level “, the fastest and 33 days, the key is the chicken breed and breeding technology. It is understood that the world-wide broiler growth rate has steadily increased over the decades, has become the industry’s “routine”. According to the China Agricultural University Press published in 2003, “New Technology in Foreign Livestock and Poultry Production”, China’s 2005 revision of the “Commercial Broiler Production Technology Regulations” and other information, in 1935, broilers grow to 1.3 kg need 90 days; and by 1986, broilers only need 45 days to grow to 1.8 kg. In China, broilers weighing 2.42 kg in 42 days is also normal, the protagonist of this incident white feather chicken is known as the “king of meat and poultry”. Experts say that the secret of “fast growth” lies in scientific breeding, feed and breeding, and hormones have nothing to do with ripening. The breeder’s selection and breeding is the high-tech mastery of a few companies, it is the white feather chicken brought about a leap in chicken meat production. Modern breeding technology feeds different feeds according to the chicken’s 3 growth stages of nutrition, bone growth and meat growth, while standardized technology such as automatic temperature and humidity control and total confinement provides a stable and suitable environment to ensure the chicken’s rapid and precise growth to the day. The questioned practice of “adding hormones to promote growth” is, in Zhu Yi’s opinion, “stealing chickens does not break a rice, the world’s farmers do not do”. A number of experts have said in media interviews that adding hormones to broiler feed is not a good idea. Hormones are costly and technically complex, and adding hormones to promote chicken growth is not effective, but also increases the risk of disease and mortality in broilers. Officials from the Veterinary Bureau of the Ministry of Agriculture have also said that even if the use of hormones promotes the rapid growth of broilers, the high mortality rate will offset the benefits, which no chicken farm can afford. However, many people still do not believe that “fast-growing chickens” are safe. Recently, QQ.com collected relevant scientific research data and produced a special issue to prove that “it is obviously not wise for consumers to assume that ‘fast-growing chickens’ are bad just because of their experience”. But the final feedback from readers was a shock: of the nearly 50,000 people who expressed their views after reading, only 15 percent thought “instant chicken” was safe, while 85 percent thought it was unsafe. Zhu Yi said that similar situations are often faced by professionals in doing science popularization dilemma, but this debate is also beneficial to society. The company’s main focus is on the safety of the chicken, but the debate is ultimately focused on the abuse of antibiotics in the breeding process, which is a commonplace topic in China’s meat and poultry food safety. Zhu Yi said that in livestock and poultry farming, antibiotic abuse is possible, and China’s detection of poultry meat containing antibiotics is not strict, which can easily lead to antibiotic-exceeding poultry meat into the market. According to the introduction, to the chicken to eat antibiotics, just like people sick to take medicine, is not unacceptable, but must meet the norms. But the preventive use of antibiotics is very common in China both for people and for livestock. Experts generally agree that China is probably one of the most serious countries in the world in the abuse of antibiotics in livestock and poultry feeding, and the abuse of antibiotics may lead to a variety of meat and dairy products antibiotic overload, harmful to human organs, but also may have drug-resistant bacteria groups. The World Health Organization established the Alliance for the Prudent Use of Antibiotics, whose members include more than 90 countries, to take severe means to restrict or even ban the use of antibiotics. And China’s regulations to limit the addition of antibiotics in livestock and poultry feed is not mandatory, and there is no comprehensive ban on the addition of antibiotics in feed for the purpose of promoting growth regulations, regulations, to a certain extent contributed to the abuse of antibiotics, many large breeding enterprises are difficult to commit not to add antibiotics to the feed. ”It is recommended that the relevant regulatory authorities pay as much attention to the regulation of ‘lean meat essence’ as they do to the regulation of ‘antibiotic chicken’.” Zhu Yi said. She has written that the enforcement of regulation is the key, the final implementation of standards and regulations are to be implemented to the grassroots. The company’s main goal is to provide the best possible service to its customers. The actual “chicken” to “antibiotic chicken”, the food field similar to a topic open will lead to many other topics of embarrassment are not few. In the end, this is still an embarrassment to the current state of food safety in China.
