Recently, the news that a fish farmer in Chongqing was taken off the shelves by Hema by antibiotics has been on the local hot search, causing many citizens to pay attention. The reporter interviewed Hema and learned that after two months of water quality improvement in the source base, the sea bass has reached the antibiotic-free standard and has been restored to the shelves in the near future.
In October this year, Hema found that the antibiotics were abnormally excessive during daily testing of the antibiotic-free sea bass it sold.
We will take samples and test all aquatic products on sale every week, and regularly hire a third-party organization to conduct sampling inspections of comprehensive indicators, especially to prevent antibiotics and other illegal drugs from exceeding the standard. Wu Jie, a regional aquatic product purchaser of Freshippo, said that after discovering that the antibiotics of this sea bass exceeded the standard, Hema immediately stopped selling related products, destroyed all inventory, and fed back to the base to find out the reason.
According to Laila Khan, the person in charge of the Hema Antibiotic-free Perch Breeding Base, the core technology of the base is to use a variety of Chinese herbal medicines instead of antibiotics to prevent and treat diseases that may occur in the process of perch farming and realize large-scale factory-style ecological farming. Since the establishment of the base for more than 3 years, the quality of the cultured sea bass has been very stable, and it has also obtained the antibiotic-free sea bass breeding certificate issued by the domestic authoritative third-party organization.
Since no antibiotics had ever been added, I thought it was strange that I checked the water intake points of the Shengtian Lake Reservoir and its surrounding tributaries upstream. "Lailahan found that the fish in the Shengtian Lake Reservoir did not appear abnormal, and the fish and shrimp in the tributaries below and the water intake point at the base were found to have detected antibiotics exceeding the standard.
Secretary Ou of Shengtianhu Village, Jindaoxia Town, Beibei District, said that since the completion of the anti-perch breeding base, it has driven more than 50 villagers around the village to increase their income, and the employment relationship has been very good. However, she said that because the tributary is 3 kilometers long, and it was the peak tourist season in November at that time, it was difficult to obtain evidence.
Because of the short transportation link and low breeding cost, the price of this antibiotic-free sea bass is only half of that of foreign brand sea bass. Wu Jie, a Hema purchaser, also confirmed that since it was put on the shelves in early September, Jindaoxia antibiotic-free perch has become a star product in Hema Chongqing by virtue of its excellent quality and affordable quality, and has gradually replaced foreign brand perch.
Regarding the problem of unexplained antibiotics exceeding the standard, Wu Jie also said that in the future, he will increase the testing of related products, urge the source base to strengthen supervision, and make every effort to provide consumers with safe, secure and cost-effective aquatic products.
