A Rostov broiler farmer was fined 750,000 rubles for selling meat contaminated with salmonella.

The lawsuit against the poultry farm was filed by ROSSELKHOZNADZOR based on the results of an inspection that revealed serious violations of the production process. These included rust on metal structures, which compromised product quality, and unsanitary conditions that facilitated the growth of pathogenic microflora.

A batch of Blagoyar pork legs with the backbone proved particularly dangerous, with laboratory tests confirming the presence of salmonella bacteria . Salmonellosis, caused by this infection, poses a serious HEALTH threat, especially to children and the elderly, as it can lead to dehydration and require medical intervention.
