Expert workshop on animal health management took place in April 2008

 

Within the last few years requirements of the food industry have changed. According to new food legal regulations, norms, standards, and initiatives enterprises are confronted with a number of new challenges. Due to these new developments, enterprises have to act in a more self-governing way along the production chain in order to ensure food safety and quality.

Group Glon as a partner in the Q-PorkChains projects has started the initiative to organise an expert workshop on the topic “Animal health management in relation to quality assurance” (15.-16. April 2008). The aim of the workshop was to get insights in the organisation of quality control in pork chains in different EU countries and companies (with the focus on farm level, slaughterhouses and connected services like veterinarians, laboratories, feed companies, farmer cooperatives etc.).
