Construction of slaughter focus points in the province Ha Long: Unable to delay



Currently, demand cattle and poultry in the province of Ha Long City on a major. The existence of the slaughter at small residential area not only does not guarantee environmental hygiene but not sure protect food safety and hygiene. Thus, the construction of the slaughter focus point is the urgent need today for a tourist city like Ha Long.

* Planning slow deployed

In 2006, the provincial People's Committee Decision No. 1214/QD-UBND, approved planning system slaughtering cattle and poultry concentrated in the province by 2020. Planning divided into two phases for implementation. In the , phase 1 (2006-2010) preferred to build slaughterhouses in 12 big cities including Ha Long. So far, the deployment build slaughterhouses concentrated in Ha Long is still slow and has not provided the right target.

Implementation of a plan, Ha Long City has planned four establishments slaughtering cattle and poultry in the wards and communes of Ha Khanh, Ha Phong, Dai Yen, Vietnam Hung ... But until now has no basis what was put into operation. Most notably two facilities in wards and Ha Ha Khanh Phong, undertook construction of complete infrastructure system of roads, electricity and water, waste treatment tanks settled ... slaughter points in wards Ha Khanh is collected at all slaughter facilities in the small eastern city wards. The city was handed over to eight slaughter facilities, building registration system and slaughter will continue to hand over premises for the base other slaughter when they subscribe to this point planning.

A point to focus more slaughter in Ha Phong Ward, the company invested Thien Truong, collecting points slaughtering cattle and poultry in the small ward, Ha Phong, Ha Tu, Hong Ha has also completed premises , factory ... However, two points still can not go into operation.

Now for two points slaughter planned city in the western town and University Vietnamese Hung Yen is still "rules", have not been implemented. Core family planning slaughter cattle and poultry are concentrated in rural White Bridge, Dai Yen is not to start planning the same. For points in Vietnamese Hung communes are other places to find no place standards to main road 500m. The city is looking for new locations for the construction of slaughtering facilities are concentrated in western localities.



* The issues to be solved

Meanwhile, the Ha Long only two reactors slaughter cattle are concentrated in the wards and wards Yet Kieu Ha Phong 800-3000 m2 scale, the capacity of 100-300 per day. Method of slaughter is still manual system for waste treatment tank and main tank is often overloaded and should settle polluting the surrounding environment. In addition, Ha Long also has about 128 points and small slaughtering more than 20 points formed spontaneously, are scattered in residential areas. These points are not guaranteed hygiene conditions of food safety, a source risks of environmental pollution, disease areas ...

According to scientists of the Institute of Planning and Designing Rural (MARD), the waste-rich organic matter in the process of slaughtering cattle and poultry at slaughter small point is not processed, poured with water treatment systems residential and accrue long decomposition can generate toxic gases smell like CH4, H2S ... This is environmental potential of infectious disease, affecting the health of people.

Moreover, the mobilization of households engaged in slaughter facilities also very difficult to focus. By long habit of the people is not easy to change in overnight. Many investors are concerned the building is concentrated at slaughter, scale, ensuring standards are not attracting people to animals to slaughter. Besides can see here is the field obtained at profits should not many investors really salty, but despite receiving the support and encouragement of the state.

According to calculations by experts, the demand to Ha Long City in 2010 is over 6000 tons of pork steam per year. 2015 is nearly 7000 tons. 2020 to nearly 11,000 tons. In the coming years demand will increase about 5-10%. Quang Ninh also found in large amounts in meat and poultry products from other provinces to be the transport, slaughter and consumption takes place are complex, difficult to manage. Thus, to ensure food hygiene and safety of consumers, minimize the private slaughterhouses are scattered in residential areas, bodies function solutions speed up the building and put the furnace operating system slaughtering cattle and poultry concentrated under planning has been approved by the PPC.
