On the issue of ensuring food security in the conditions of the Boensky enterprise

Providing the market with safe meat food is the most important strategic task of the state. The Leningrad region is duly taking the lead in increasing the production of pork and beef relative to other regions. A significant role in ensuring the quality and safety of meat is played by the state veterinary service, whose representatives carry out pre-slaughter inspection of animals and postslaughter veterinary and sanitary examination of slaughter products.
The object of the study were slaughter animals - and 1434 heads of cattle and 8629 heads of pigs, supplied for processing at Agrotorg-47 LLC (Leningrad region), as well as slaughter products obtained from them. Acceptance and processing of slaughter animals at the enterprise, as well as postslaughter veterinary and sanitary examination was carried out in accordance with the Veterinary Rules for the appointment and conduct of veterinary and sanitary examination of meat and products of slaughter (fishing) of animals intended for processing and (or) sale (2022).
During the post-mortem examination of the products of slaughter of cattle and pigs, veterinarians of Agrotorg-47 LLC periodically reveal pathoanatomical changes that are the basis for the rejection of raw materials. In the lungs in a large number of carcasses, hemaspirations are found (16%), less often feed aspiration (2%). When slaughtering young animals, in rare cases, umbilical hernias (8%) and cryptorchidism were established, especially in boars (13%). During the post-mortem examination of cows, pathologies of the non-infectious nature of the reproductive system and udder were mainly recorded: endometritis (27%), mastitis (31%), cysts and ovarian atrophy (26%), which were the basis for culling animals and sending them for slaughter.
Thanks to the complex of measures required, prescribed by the Veterinary Rules, during the slaughter of animals, the fact of circulation on the market of food products that pose a danger to the health of consumers and the well-being of the territory in veterinary and sanitary terms is excluded.
