Advances in the inspection system of the slaughterhouse sector will be on the agenda during the International Poultry and Swine Show SIAVS, the largest event for the sectors in the country, to be held from August 9 to 11 at Anhembi Parque in São Paulo SP.
Scheduled for the first day of the event, the panel Advances and Challenges in the Slaughterhouse Sector will bring together political leaders, tax auditors from the Ministry of Agriculture and industry representatives to discuss regulatory frameworks currently under development, with a direct impact on efficiency and the improvement of controls within the food industry.
The panel will be moderated by Márcia Ferrari, Quality Manager at Cooperativa Agroindustrial Consolata Copacol, and will be divided into three stages. In the first stage, Federal Deputy Domingos Sávio will speak about the bill under his rapporteurship in Congress, which addresses improvements to self control, a measure already in place in the slaughterhouse industry that will gain new elements.
Later, a sequence of two presentations will address the modernization program for poultry and swine inspection. The first will be delivered by Ana Lucia Viana, Director of the Department of Inspection of Products of Animal Origin DIPOA, presenting the public sector perspective on improvement measures. The topic will then be further developed in the presentation by veterinary medicine professor Liris Kindlen from the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul.
At the end, technical specialists from four agribusiness companies and cooperatives in the sector Marisete Cerutti from Seara Alimentos, Audren Abra de Carvalho from C Vale, and Luciana Chicarelli from Bello Alimentos will debate the set of measures and the expectations of the productive sector regarding productivity gains, quality preservation and waste reduction.
“We are at an important moment for defining advances in the risk based slaughterhouse inspection model, in line with other major producers such as the European Union, the United States and Canada. Bringing together such distinct stakeholders on the same stage around the same topic fosters maturity and strengthens alignment between public and private entities around regulations whose main beneficiary will be the consumer,” analyzes Technical Director Sula Alves.
Other economic and technical panels will be part of the program of the largest event for the sectors in the country. Learn more through the LINK.
