Abstract

In order to ensure safety of meat and meat products as well as necessary repeatability of products quality throughout the food chain, raw materials producers are required to ensure appropriate condition for production (both crops and breeding). It obligates to implementation and application systems such as: Good Agriculture Practise (GAP), Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP), Good Higiene Practice (GHP), and for intermediary companies participating in raw materials trade mandatory implementation of GHP and GMP system as well as HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point), QACP (Quality Assurance Control Points), ISO 9001, ISO 22000. In 1987 was established ISO9000 series of standards by International Organization of Standardization for concerning quality management and quality assurance. In this system quality control is continuous and take place at every step from design through production to waste disposal. Application of management systems requires reconstruct and expansion of information flow?s channel between processing (meat processing plant) and raw materials suppliers (breeders of animal of slaugters) regarding rules of preparation and implication of feeds and drugs. Ensuring repeatability quality of producing meat products demand managing by meat processing plant or appointed to this institution, breeders audit and monitoring of livestock and crops. For proper functioning of quality management systems is necessary ensure highest quality in whole chain food, ie from farm to table. Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) is quality management system, for food production process, which was imtroduce by UE Directive No. 92/46 and is valid in Poland mainly so that the producer can become a reliable supplier of food on the EU market. Adjustment of Polish law to European Union regulations require many activities including the dissemination of the principles of GMP and implementation of HACCP system in food processing (according to Directive EU 93/94/ECC in foodstuffs hygiene). HACCP system is considered as most effective and most efficient tool in ensure high standard of hygiene condition of production and food processing. Generally, HACCAP system can be described as procedures designed to identify the health hazards of food and the risk of their occurrence during all stages of food production and distribution. This is system, which controls and protects risks relevant to consumers safety and their health protect protection. HACCP protects consumer interests giving him assurance of safety and high health quality of purchased food products. The manufacturer is convinced that he did everything to provide product that is safe for human health. A characteristic property of these systems is integration of quality management and food safety, and taking over the supervision and control throughout the food chain according to the principle "from farm to fork"(from farm to fork, from stable to table).

Summary

Introduction

In promotion of animal products should be used trendy expression “authentic food”. As authentic food can be describe e.g. very attractive products, characteristic only for specific country of specific region of country e.g. regional honey etc. In “authentic food” production very important and specific role plays local animal breeds and plants, which guarantee specific properties of final products. Local breeds usually outgoing in production range to new, intensive breed of animals, but products from them have better quality. It is another chance gave this breed of animals for subsistence and development. 12 June 2007 Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development conceded system “Quality Tradition” as national quality control system. This system is used to highlighting food products, especially traditional products of high quality. To this system are included only products of high quality resulted from its traditional character, characterised by specific quality or another properties distinctive them from another products from same category
