Tridge summary

A new resolution, Joint Resolution 10/2021, has been implemented in Argentina to regulate artisanal dairy production, aiming to bring more units under federal oversight. Developed by Senasa, INAL-ANMAT, INTI, INTA, and the National Directorate of Dairy of the MAGyP, the resolution establishes guidelines for dairies producing up to 5,000 liters per day, emphasizing product quality and safety. It exempts these dairies from certain facilities requirements, such as separate toilets and sinks for different sexes, and allows for shared spaces for processing and storage, as long as workflow and hygiene are maintained. The initiative is part of a larger effort to formalize and regulate the artisanal dairy sector, ensuring compliance with health and food standards.
