"fake korean beef with the national coat of arms." controversy...ministry of agriculture, food and rural affairs "enhanced crackdown with food and drug administration"

The Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs has recently decided to strengthen its crackdown on a set of Korean beef gifts that Minister Song Mi-ryeong received at the National Audit Office of the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs turned out to be fake.

The Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs said it operates a livestock product history system that can be checked from the birth of cows to the slaughter process, but violations such as different grade marks are occurring when selling.

The Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs is in charge of managing the history system, and the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety is pointing out that the authority to crack down on rating marks is not effective in detection, and the government plans to strengthen the crackdown by sharing related information with the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety and conducting joint inspections every quarter.

It also added that violators will conduct a one-year crackdown after being caught to prevent a recurrence.

Earlier on the 7th, at the audit of the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs, the Korean beef that Minister Song received from Lee Byung-jin, a lawmaker of the Democratic Party of Korea, was found to be beef from another individual, sparking controversy over the use of livestock history.
