Risk Notice: Recommendation 1. Organic certified enterprises: They should strictly regulate their own behavior in accordance with organic product certification standards, and when using input substances, they should use substances in the standard's permitted list and filed with the certification body, avoiding the use of non-compliant substances; it is recommended that an open feeding process model may be appropriately adopted to increase social transparency and enhance consumer confidence. 2. Certification bodies: When inspecting breeding enterprises, they should focus on the use of animal feed, additives, and other input substances at the breeding site; carry out special unannounced inspections of existing certified enterprises, and clearly state to enterprises that input substances must be used strictly in accordance with organic standards; 3. Regulatory authorities: Implement special investigations of relevant certified breeding enterprises within their jurisdiction, increase inspection intensity for relevant enterprises, and once problems are found, promptly collect evidence and handle them strictly in accordance with the law.Өгүүлэл нь ...-аас авсанFOFCC-http://fofcc.org.cn/mn/11543/
