Abstract:

The current situation and development of meat product processing industry in China is summarized and the major food safety issues regarding meat products are analyzed. In order to enhance the management of livestock environment, regulate cultivation management, improve food safety knowledge of consumers, and accomplish effective inspection and control of meat products, a strict control strategy for meat product safety is proposed to introduce HACCP and detection systems during the processes of manufacturing, storage, transport and distribution of meat products. Meanwhile, governments and corresponding departments should borrow foreign experience to establish a prefect system for cultivation, manufacturing, management and quality control.

Key words: meat product, quality and safety, current situation, control and improvement, HACCP
