In recent years, the number and frequency of food safety problems have increased, which makes many people worry and panic about food safety. So, what is our current food safety situation? In fact, the food safety situation in China is generally good. The party and the state have always attached great importance to food safety, and regarded ensuring food safety as a major task related to the vital interests of the people, social harmony and stability and the overall situation of China's socialist modernization. Since the reform and opening up, China's agricultural standardization ability has been greatly strengthened, and the market share of high-quality brand agricultural products has steadily increased; The food industry continues to develop rapidly and healthily. Some food enterprises approach or reach the international leading level in processing technology and equipment, and large enterprises generally have world-class production equipment and inspection equipment. At the same time, a set of basically complete food safety legal system has been initially formed; A set of supervision system has also been established, which is based on the joint action of various departments, with subsection supervision as the main part and variety supervision as the supplement, covering all aspects of food from production to circulation to consumption. However, ensuring food safety is a very complicated issue. Because there are many links from grain planting to consumption, it is difficult to coordinate among various regulatory departments, and the development levels of the industries involved are different, and the interests involved are complex. Therefore, ensuring food safety is a systematic project with long-term and arduous nature. Recently, there have been frequent food safety accidents in China, and the masses have strongly reacted, which shows that our food safety work needs to be improved and improved. First of all, China is in the process of modernization and industrialization. Although agriculture and food industry have maintained a good development momentum, there are still more than 200 million farmers engaged in decentralized production, and there are millions of decentralized small processing enterprises, most of which have outdated and crude production equipment, backward technology and poor production environment. It is very difficult to carry out unified management with high standards and strict requirements for these producers and operators with extremely low entry barriers. This requires a process, and it is difficult to completely eliminate the phenomenon of excessive chemical fertilizer and pesticide residues, abuse of antibiotics and hormones, and pollution by pathogenic microorganisms in food processing. In addition, the development of industrialization has also brought serious environmental pollution, causing harmful substances in industrial wastewater, urban sewage and improperly treated garbage to enter the production environment of agriculture and animal husbandry, causing pollution of crops, aquatic products and livestock products. This is also an important reason for the high risk of food safety. Secondly, there are still defects in China's food supervision system. At present, China implements a segmented supervision system for food safety, that is, each department fulfills one responsibility. For example, the cultivation and breeding of agricultural products are managed by agricultural departments, food production is managed by quality supervision departments, food circulation links such as supermarkets and shopping malls are managed by industrial and commercial departments, and catering services are managed by food and drug supervision and management departments, and so on. In theory, this can be managed by all departments, but in practice, it is difficult to carry out coordinated and unified actions. On the one hand, there will be regulatory gaps; On the other hand, due to unclear responsibilities, it will lead to mutual shirking, and some departments will struggle to manage the benefits and shirk the benefits. For example, in the Sanlu incident, the most critical milk station was unsupervised. The disadvantages of multi-head management and overlapping functions generally weaken the effect of food safety supervision. Finally, compared with the current grim food safety situation, our supervision and law enforcement level is low and the intensity is not enough. The outstanding performance is: food safety standards are seriously behind international standards and actual needs, and the standards themselves are various. Due to the lack of coordination, they often "fight", which leads to the supervision and law enforcement personnel being at a loss; The form of administrative law enforcement is often a short-term inspection of "centralized rectification" After the rectification, some problem enterprises still go their own way, and it is difficult to get rid of the strange circle of "flooding-cracking down-temporary relief-rampant again-cracking down again". The current laws and regulations have relatively light penalties for food safety issues and have not played their due deterrent role; Some places do not resolutely ban illegal enterprises on the grounds of developing economy, expanding employment and maintaining stability, and even obstruct law enforcement and act as "protective umbrellas"; Some law enforcement officers have a weak legal concept, inadequate supervision responsibility, going through the motions, disobeying the law and lax enforcement; Wait a minute. These are all in urgent need of improvement and strengthening.
