Export of pig, chickens hits a high this year thanks to Thailand’s food safety practices

By THE NATION

 

 

Thailand’s export of pigs and chickens in the first 10 months of this year was far higher compared to the same period last year, the Department of Livestock Development said.

 

The department’s director general Sorawit Thanito said Thailand exported 2 million pigs worth around Bt13 billion from January to October this year, marking an increase of 344.30 per cent from the same period last year.

 

He added that 769,000 tonnes of chicken meat and related products worth Bt89 billion was also exported in the first 10 months of this year, marking a 0.67 per cent increase from the same period in 2019.

 

Of the chicken products, fresh chicken accounted for 58.5 per cent and processed chicken 41.5 per cent.

 

Sorawit said this success could be put down to Thailand’s food safety and balance in production.

Or, just possibly: China culling half their pigs in 2019 due to swine flu.

Food safety must have a very wide spectrum here ????

I saw the picture accompanying the article and the first word to pop into my head was politicians!

Thailand’s food safety practices

Second only to their road safety practices.

How many people have been attacked by a leg of pork? None, OK it's safe

????????????????????????

China will suck Thailand's food supply dry. And Thai's will see their own food costs skyrocket.

Unlike the shrimp industry which tells European countries everything is organic, {Germany] then dumps chemicals galore into the ponds to fight infections.

Lies lies & more lies.

Impressing video! I knew it is bad, but I didn't expect it to be as bad. This video is 10 years old. You can bet it became even a lot worse in the meantime. Interesting also that they didn't hestitate to mention the names of the companies.

 

There will be hardly any difference to the pork and chicken farms in Thailand.

 

"Thailand's food safety practices"? What a joke! It's nothing but capitalism out of control.

You got that damned right, out of sight and out of mind... organic that's laughable, sustainable is joking.
Profit at all costs, even down to the slave labour to achieve it.

Dig deep and companies like CP are hiding a  lot of dirty tricks.

And then you have 

 

So, is this announcement PS or BS ?

So they've provided some nice numbers up to the time that Trump cancelled their special trade agreement worth $800m. Next year might not look so good.
