[Agricultural and Fisheries Products News=Reporter Kim Jin-oh] The Ministry of Food and Drug Safety announced that on the 21st, Commissioner Oh Yu-gyeong visited Jeonnam Haenam's Hwawon Agricultural Cooperative, a kimchi cabbage producer, and Haenon Co., Ltd., a dried laver producer in Mokpo, Jeonnam, to check the current status of safety management during the kimchi season and laver production peak periods. During this inspection, they examined the storage conditions of raw materials and final products, the hygiene management of machinery and equipment used in the workplace and manufacturing, whether workers were wearing sanitary clothes and hats, and the use of food additives such as sweeteners and preservatives. Commissioner Oh said, "There are criticisms that simple processed agricultural and fishery products lack hygiene management because they do not have a separate business registration obligation," and emphasized the importance of providing safe laver to the public.
