Checks to be carried out on antibiotics in chickens
Minister of Agriculture and Food Dr. Miroslav Naidenov ordered checks for antibiotics in poultry, to be carried out by the National Veterinary Service, reported the press service of the Ministry of Agriculture and Food.
They will begin to take samples at local manufacturers and commercially produced chickens, fortraces of injection of young chickens with antibiotics, which are harmful to consumers. Furthermore, we will be checking for added water and hormones for greater weight and thus deceiving consumers.
The Poultry Association also sought greater control in meeting with the Minister at the beginning of the week. "
We have warned all in advance so they know that we will monitor them,"
added Minister Naydenov.
