CERTIFICATION OF ECO-CENTRIC LIVESTOCK REARING
The General Office of the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region People's Government has continuously carried out the certification of eco-centric livestock farming operations, and has achieved phased results in regulating the development of the livestock industry.
OFFICIAL PUBLICATIONS
The General Office of the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region People's Government issued the "13th Five-Year Plan for Guangxi's Modern Eco-Centric Livestock Rearing", and have subsequently issued other publications including the "Technical Specifications for Guangxi's Modern Eco-Centric Livestock Rearing (Trial)", "Notice on Accelerating the Promotion of Modern Eco-Centric Livestock Rearing", and the "Certification Work Plan for Guangxi's Eco-Centric Livestock Rearing Farms".
They have continuously carried out the certification of eco-centric livestock farming operations, and have achieved phased results in regulating the development of the livestock industry.
KEY CRITERIA FOR CERTIFICATION
01. Microbial Fermentation of Feed
Feeding livestock with feed that has undergone microbial fermentation using crop residues like straw, sugarcane leaves, or mulberry leaves, or alternatively, incorporating specialized microbial additives mixed into the feed.
02. Standardized Farming Facilities
The livestock farms are strategically located and designed. The production facilities and equipment for housing animals, its feeding and its environment adhere to recognised standards for sustainable and environmentally-responsible livestock production.
03. Sanitized Farming Environment
Prioritize in maintaining a consistently clean, orderly, and sanitary environment for the animals and operations.
04. No Additives
No additives are used in the feed or drinking water. Any use of chemical disinfectants that leave residues or impact product quality and probiotic safety are prohibited.
05. Utilization of Livestock Waste
Facilitated with adequate manure storage with specialized microbial fermentation technology to process livestock waste. The fermented manure is then directly reused as fertilizer onto its farmland or further processed as organic fertilizer.
INTEGRATED BENEFITS
These certification standards consider core elements such as animal welfare and product safety. At the same time, they also address holistic considerations across the livestock farm operations - from reducing manure at its source, standardizing controls, to convenient end-processing, and maximising utilization on-site.
The Model not only meets these certification requirements, but also delivers impressive integrated benefits ecologically and environmentally, such as ensuring high product quality and safety, attaining elevated feed conversion ratios, boosting labour productivity, and optimizing land utilization.
Guangdong is the country’s major pig and poultry production region, and a crucial livestock supplier for the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area.
