AFFS Quality Assurance System

1. The quality assurance system established by the AFFS is a key factor contributing to consumer confidence towards AFFS products. The examination executed comprises two levels, the regular monitoring of farms, and test of aquatic products before sale. The hygiene, management, use of drugs and feed additives, as well as the health condition of aquatic products and water quality during the rearing period are also closely monitored. Detailed quality test items and standards are clearly set out in Enclosure 4 of the Manual.
