Stephanie Strom, a reporter at The New York Times, gets a hot tip from some of her Wall Street contacts. They're big investors, including hedge funds.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They tell her that some aggressive investors — they don't say exactly who — have made a big bet against chicken companies. Those investors think chicken companies have grown too fast, and the nation is headed for a glut of chicken.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://ondemand.npr.org/anon.npr-mp3/npr/me/2018/05/20180517_me_a_story_about_wall_street_hedge_funds_and_the_chicken_business.mp3\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"They were betting that the price of chicken was going to fall,\" Strom recalls; chicken companies' profits would disappear, and their stock price also would take a hit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>These investors had \"shorted the stock,\" Strom says. They'd put big money behind their bet that the stocks of chicken companies like Tyson Foods, Pilgrim's Pride, or Sanderson Farms would fall in value.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They were frustrated, though, because that bet wasn't paying off. \"When you went to the grocery store, the price was either stable or even going up slightly. Which was probably driving those guys crazy!\" Strom says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But they had a possible explanation. Chicken companies, they thought, were keeping prices artificially high, and they were doing it by taking advantage of a guy sitting in an office at the Georgia Department of Agriculture.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That guy's name? Arty Schronce.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Schronce was the department's gardening expert. He wrote a column called Arty's Garden. Occasionally, he'd celebrate Georgia's native flowers in videos that look like they were shot on a cell phone.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2012, though, he'd taken on a new job. He was the man in charge of Georgia's Poultry Marketing News.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This was a low-tech operation; Schronce just called big chicken companies operating in Georgia and ask what they were selling drumsticks and thighs and whole birds for that week. He put the average price in a newsletter and sent it out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And because Georgia is the biggest chicken producing state in the country, Arty's prices were used across the industry. Sometimes they were part of a formula that supermarkets or big chain restaurants used to set the price that they paid for their chicken.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those frustrated Wall Street investors noticed, near the end of 2015 and the beginning of 2016, that Arty's numbers looked strange. Other indexes of chicken prices, such as one published by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, had fallen sharply. Arty's numbers didn't fall. They were 30 percent or even 50 percent higher than other chicken indexes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So the Wall Street guys hired a lawyer to start investigating.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And eventually, that lawyer got his hands on a document. A memo that Arty Schronce wrote to himself about this chicken price index.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It was a bombshell.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In this memo, Arty Schronce wrote that he didn't believe his own index anymore. When he called the chicken companies and asked for prices, they said things like, \"Just keep 'em the same.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Arty just had to trust them; that's how this worked. Even though millions of dollars depended on those numbers, nobody had ever asked for invoices to verify that chicken sales actually happened at those quoted prices. The companies could have been making up those numbers, keeping prices high.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Schronce writes that he had \"come to question the validity of some of the information provided.\" And he thought that the state of Georgia should not be running this index. The department should shut it down, he wrote, or transfer it to someone else and have them take responsibility for it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Basically, this memo appeared to confirm the hedge funds' theory that chicken companies were fixing prices.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Within a day of the lawyer getting that memo, it had been passed on to the \u003cem>Washington Post\u003c/em>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When it was \u003ca href=\"https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/wonk/wp/2016/11/17/internal-document-supports-argument-that-u-s-chicken-prices-have-been-artificially-inflated-for-years/?utm_term=.a655ab410431\">published\u003c/a>, it destroyed the reputation of that price index. The Georgia Department of Agriculture stopped publishing it. This, of course, is what Arty Schronce had proposed in his memo. But some short-selling, profit-seeking Wall Street guys made it happen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So the Georgia price index went away — and the funny thing is, chicken prices still didn't fall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are two competing theories to explain this.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One theory is, big supermarkets just ignored Georgia's price index when the numbers didn't seem right, and instead negotiated prices on their own. If that's what happened, any attempt to fix prices didn't work, and nobody got hurt.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But other people — including some big chicken buyers — maintain that there really was price-fixing, and chicken prices didn't fall because the companies that dominate the chicken business found other ways to prop up prices.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This is the central allegation in a \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/sections/thesalt/2018/02/06/583806552/big-food-versus-big-chicken-lawsuits-allege-processors-conspired-to-fix-bird-pri\">lawsuit\u003c/a> that a bunch of those big chicken buyers, such as supermarkets and restaurants, have filed against the big chicken producers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The poultry companies deny the accusations. That case could take years to resolve.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As for Arty Schronce, he's now retired from the Georgia Department of Agriculture. I tried to reach him for this story, but he didn't return my calls and letters.

They'd put big money behind their bet that the stocks of chicken companies like Tyson Foods, Pilgrim's Pride, or Sanderson Farms would fall in value.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They were frustrated, though, because that bet wasn't paying off. \"When you went to the grocery store, the price was either stable or even going up slightly. Which was probably driving those guys crazy!\" Strom says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But they had a possible explanation. Chicken companies, they thought, were keeping prices artificially high, and they were doing it by taking advantage of a guy sitting in an office at the Georgia Department of Agriculture.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That guy's name? Arty Schronce.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Schronce was the department's gardening expert. He wrote a column called Arty's Garden. Occasionally, he'd celebrate Georgia's native flowers in videos that look like they were shot on a cell phone.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2012, though, he'd taken on a new job. He was the man in charge of Georgia's Poultry Marketing News.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This was a low-tech operation; Schronce just called big chicken companies operating in Georgia and ask what they were selling drumsticks and thighs and whole birds for that week. He put the average price in a newsletter and sent it out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And because Georgia is the biggest chicken producing state in the country, Arty's prices were used across the industry. Sometimes they were part of a formula that supermarkets or big chain restaurants used to set the price that they paid for their chicken.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those frustrated Wall Street investors noticed, near the end of 2015 and the beginning of 2016, that Arty's numbers looked strange. Other indexes of chicken prices, such as one published by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, had fallen sharply. Arty's numbers didn't fall. They were 30 percent or even 50 percent higher than other chicken indexes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So the Wall Street guys hired a lawyer to start investigating.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And eventually, that lawyer got his hands on a document. A memo that Arty Schronce wrote to himself about this chicken price index.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It was a bombshell.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In this memo, Arty Schronce wrote that he didn't believe his own index anymore. When he called the chicken companies and asked for prices, they said things like, \"Just keep 'em the same.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Arty just had to trust them; that's how this worked. Even though millions of dollars depended on those numbers, nobody had ever asked for invoices to verify that chicken sales actually happened at those quoted prices. The companies could have been making up those numbers, keeping prices high.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Schronce writes that he had \"come to question the validity of some of the information provided.\" And he thought that the state of Georgia should not be running this index. The department should shut it down, he wrote, or transfer it to someone else and have them take responsibility for it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Basically, this memo appeared to confirm the hedge funds' theory that chicken companies were fixing prices.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Within a day of the lawyer getting that memo, it had been passed on to the \u003cem>Washington Post\u003c/em>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When it was \u003ca href=\"https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/wonk/wp/2016/11/17/internal-document-supports-argument-that-u-s-chicken-prices-have-been-artificially-inflated-for-years/?utm_term=.a655ab410431\">published\u003c/a>, it destroyed the reputation of that price index. The Georgia Department of Agriculture stopped publishing it. This, of course, is what Arty Schronce had proposed in his memo. But some short-selling, profit-seeking Wall Street guys made it happen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So the Georgia price index went away — and the funny thing is, chicken prices still didn't fall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are two competing theories to explain this.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One theory is, big supermarkets just ignored Georgia's price index when the numbers didn't seem right, and instead negotiated prices on their own. If that's what happened, any attempt to fix prices didn't work, and nobody got hurt.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But other people — including some big chicken buyers — maintain that there really was price-fixing, and chicken prices didn't fall because the companies that dominate the chicken business found other ways to prop up prices.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This is the central allegation in a \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/sections/thesalt/2018/02/06/583806552/big-food-versus-big-chicken-lawsuits-allege-processors-conspired-to-fix-bird-pri\">lawsuit\u003c/a> that a bunch of those big chicken buyers, such as supermarkets and restaurants, have filed against the big chicken producers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The poultry companies deny the accusations. That case could take years to resolve.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As for Arty Schronce, he's now retired from the Georgia Department of Agriculture. I tried to reach him for this story, but he didn't return my calls and letters. Hopefully, he's somewhere peacefully tending his garden. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Copyright 2018 \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/\">NPR\u003c/a>. \u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}}],"link":"/bayareabites/128214/how-wall-street-brought-down-georgias-suspicious-chicken-price-index","authors":["byline_bayareabites_128214"],"categories":["bayareabites_1962","bayareabites_10028","bayareabites_2035"],"tags":["bayareabites_621","bayareabites_12328"],"featImg":"bayareabites_128215","label":"bayareabites"},"bayareabites_124787":{"type":"posts","id":"bayareabites_124787","meta":{"index":"posts_1591205157","site":"bayareabites","id":"124787","score":null,"sort":[1517436331000]},"guestAuthors":[],"slug":"usda-denies-poultry-industrys-request-to-speed-up-the-slaughter-line","title":"USDA Denies Poultry Industry's Request To Speed Up The Slaughter Line","publishDate":1517436331,"format":"standard","headTitle":"Bay Area Bites | KQED Food","labelTerm":{},"content":"\u003cp>The U.S. Department of Agriculture has \u003ca href=\"https://www.fsis.usda.gov/wps/wcm/connect/235092cf-e3c0-4285-9560-e60cf6956df8/17-05-FSIS-Response-Letter-01292018.pdf?MOD=AJPERES\">denied\u003c/a> a \u003ca href=\"https://www.fsis.usda.gov/wps/wcm/connect/7734f5cf-05d9-4f89-a7eb-6d85037ad2a7/17-05-Petition-National-Chicken-Council-09012017.pdf?MOD=AJPERES\">petition\u003c/a> by the \u003ca href=\"http://www.nationalchickencouncil.org/\">National Chicken Council\u003c/a> to remove the line speed limit on work at some slaughterhouses, a move that food safety advocates are calling a victory for workers and consumers.

That's because most U.S. poultry is chilled in antimicrobial baths that can include chlorine to keep salmonella and other bacteria in check. In Europe, chlorine treatment was banned in the 1990s out of fear that it could cause cancer.\u003cstrong> \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"In Europe there is definitely a disgust about chlorinated chicken,\" says Schimpf, a food activist with Friends of the Earth Europe, an environmental group.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The chlorine vs. no chlorine debate has come up a lot recently in the context of a massive trans-Atlantic trade agreement. This week, negotiators from Europe and the U.S. are meeting in Washington for a seventh round of talks aimed at creating the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership, or TTIP.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The agreement would create the world's biggest free-trade zone and touch everything from banking to agriculture. But there's a lot of opposition to TTIP in Europe, where some fear it would degrade their food standards. And activists have found the perfect symbol for their fight in chlorinated American chicken.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On the German equivalent of \u003cem>The Daily Show\u003c/em>, called the \u003cem>\u003ca href=\"http://heuteshow.zdf.de/\">Heute Show\u003c/a>,\u003c/em> American poultry has become a running joke. In one \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=smRF8R7Ug6s\">skit\u003c/a>, a reporter is in the White House kitchen eating a chicken nugget.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"You can't be mad at someone who makes such a tasty chlorinated chicken,\" he quips. \"Mmm, it has a slight aroma of kiddy pool.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the chlorine isn't really a public health concern, says \u003ca href=\"http://www.poultry.uga.edu/personnel/russell.htm\">Scott Russell\u003c/a>, a professor of poultry processing at the University of Georgia. \"Most of these concerns about chemical use and those kinds of things are blown up in the media to become a problem that really doesn't exist,\" he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>American processors use about a cap full of chlorine per gallon, or 50 parts per million, in a water tank that chills the chicken carcasses. That chlorine, he explains, is used to disinfect the poultry. He says it gets washed off and poses no health threat to consumers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the EU takes a different approach — it operates on the precautionary principle, a kind of abundance of caution when it comes to any substance that enters your body.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"In Europe, their efforts to control foodborne illness is all in the live bird. For example, the grandparent stock, the breeder stock that makes the egg of the chicken we eat eventually — all of those flocks of chicken are tested regularly for salmonella,\" Russell says. If any of these chickens test positive, farmers have to get rid of the entire flock.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With this method, Europeans have reduced salmonella in their chicken to just 2 percent, Russell says, but the process took 20 years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Europeans have pushed for some of the toughest food-safety standards in the world. They want to eat fresh chicken that's air-chilled rather than dumped in chlorinated water tanks, says \u003ca href=\"http://www.avec-poultry.eu/structure\">Cees Vermeeren\u003c/a>, who manages the European Association of Poultry Processors and Poultry Trade.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The main principle of the European food policy is a farm-to-fork approach, and you may say that is fundamentally different from what's happening outside Europe in many places,\" Vermeeren says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That strict food policy makes poultry production more expensive. A \u003ca href=\"http://www.avec-poultry.eu/communications-position-papers\">study \u003c/a>by Wageningen University in the Netherlands found it takes about a dollar in Europe to produce a pound of chicken, compared with less than 80 cents in America.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over 120 countries accept the U.S. processing method, says \u003ca href=\"http://www.usapeec.org/contact/\">James Sumner\u003c/a>, the president of the U.S.A. Poultry and Egg Export Council. It's cheaper, he says, and Europe doesn't want U.S. competition. \"If the truth were to be known, that's the real reason they don't want is there, and chlorine is a convenient excuse,\" he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For activists like Mute Schimpf who are trying to sway the public to reject a big treaty that's full of legal jargon and complicated regulations, the chicken argument works. \"Very often the chlorinated chicken is used as a symbol of what European citizens and consumers don't want to have as an outcome from the trade talks,\" she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Besides changes in chicken production, activists are also fighting the possibility of hormone-treated beef and genetically engineered crops entering the European market if TTIP succeeds.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Though the talks between the U.S. and the EU are held in secret, any agreement needs approval from the European parliament, which is elected by a public that worries a lot about its food supply. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Copyright 2014 \u003ca href=\"http://www.gpb.org/\" target=\"_blank\">Georgia Public Broadcasting\u003c/a>.\u003c/em> \u003c/p>\n\n","blocks":[],"excerpt":"Most U.S. poultry is bathed in a little chlorine on the way to your plate.

This week, negotiators from Europe and the U.S. are meeting in Washington for a seventh round of talks aimed at creating the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership, or TTIP.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The agreement would create the world's biggest free-trade zone and touch everything from banking to agriculture. But there's a lot of opposition to TTIP in Europe, where some fear it would degrade their food standards. And activists have found the perfect symbol for their fight in chlorinated American chicken.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On the German equivalent of \u003cem>The Daily Show\u003c/em>, called the \u003cem>\u003ca href=\"http://heuteshow.zdf.de/\">Heute Show\u003c/a>,\u003c/em> American poultry has become a running joke. In one \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=smRF8R7Ug6s\">skit\u003c/a>, a reporter is in the White House kitchen eating a chicken nugget.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"You can't be mad at someone who makes such a tasty chlorinated chicken,\" he quips. \"Mmm, it has a slight aroma of kiddy pool.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the chlorine isn't really a public health concern, says \u003ca href=\"http://www.poultry.uga.edu/personnel/russell.htm\">Scott Russell\u003c/a>, a professor of poultry processing at the University of Georgia. \"Most of these concerns about chemical use and those kinds of things are blown up in the media to become a problem that really doesn't exist,\" he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>American processors use about a cap full of chlorine per gallon, or 50 parts per million, in a water tank that chills the chicken carcasses. That chlorine, he explains, is used to disinfect the poultry. He says it gets washed off and poses no health threat to consumers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the EU takes a different approach — it operates on the precautionary principle, a kind of abundance of caution when it comes to any substance that enters your body.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"In Europe, their efforts to control foodborne illness is all in the live bird. For example, the grandparent stock, the breeder stock that makes the egg of the chicken we eat eventually — all of those flocks of chicken are tested regularly for salmonella,\" Russell says. If any of these chickens test positive, farmers have to get rid of the entire flock.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With this method, Europeans have reduced salmonella in their chicken to just 2 percent, Russell says, but the process took 20 years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Europeans have pushed for some of the toughest food-safety standards in the world. They want to eat fresh chicken that's air-chilled rather than dumped in chlorinated water tanks, says \u003ca href=\"http://www.avec-poultry.eu/structure\">Cees Vermeeren\u003c/a>, who manages the European Association of Poultry Processors and Poultry Trade.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The main principle of the European food policy is a farm-to-fork approach, and you may say that is fundamentally different from what's happening outside Europe in many places,\" Vermeeren says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That strict food policy makes poultry production more expensive. A \u003ca href=\"http://www.avec-poultry.eu/communications-position-papers\">study \u003c/a>by Wageningen University in the Netherlands found it takes about a dollar in Europe to produce a pound of chicken, compared with less than 80 cents in America.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over 120 countries accept the U.S. processing method, says \u003ca href=\"http://www.usapeec.org/contact/\">James Sumner\u003c/a>, the president of the U.S.A. Poultry and Egg Export Council. It's cheaper, he says, and Europe doesn't want U.S. competition. \"If the truth were to be known, that's the real reason they don't want is there, and chlorine is a convenient excuse,\" he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For activists like Mute Schimpf who are trying to sway the public to reject a big treaty that's full of legal jargon and complicated regulations, the chicken argument works. \"Very often the chlorinated chicken is used as a symbol of what European citizens and consumers don't want to have as an outcome from the trade talks,\" she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Besides changes in chicken production, activists are also fighting the possibility of hormone-treated beef and genetically engineered crops entering the European market if TTIP succeeds.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Though the talks between the U.S. and the EU are held in secret, any agreement needs approval from the European parliament, which is elected by a public that worries a lot about its food supply. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Copyright 2014 \u003ca href=\"http://www.gpb.org/\" target=\"_blank\">Georgia Public Broadcasting\u003c/a>.\u003c/em> \u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}}],"link":"/bayareabites/88217/european-activists-say-they-dont-want-any-u-s-chlorine-chicken","authors":["byline_bayareabites_88217"],"categories":["bayareabites_10028","bayareabites_4084","bayareabites_1245","bayareabites_10916","bayareabites_2035","bayareabites_34"],"tags":["bayareabites_635","bayareabites_621","bayareabites_13848","bayareabites_9102","bayareabites_12328","bayareabites_10921"],"featImg":"bayareabites_88221","label":"bayareabites"},"bayareabites_87093":{"type":"posts","id":"bayareabites_87093","meta":{"index":"posts_1591205157","site":"bayareabites","id":"87093","score":null,"sort":[1409800985000]},"guestAuthors":[],"slug":"perdue-says-its-hatching-chicks-are-off-antibiotics","title":"Perdue Says Its Hatching Chicks Are Off Antibiotics","publishDate":1409800985,"format":"aside","headTitle":"Bay Area Bites | KQED Food","labelTerm":{"site":"bayareabites"},"content":"\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_87094\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1798px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/09/hatchery-3_slide-745a8da86a235a678943bc2f039d8ac427c3261e.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/09/hatchery-3_slide-745a8da86a235a678943bc2f039d8ac427c3261e.jpg\" alt='Chicks in the Perdue hatchery in Salisbury, Md.

The kicker: These products can now be sold in the U.S. without a country-of-origin label.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For starters, just four Chinese processing plants will be allowed to export cooked chicken products to the U.S., as first reported by \u003ca href=\"http://www.politico.com/story/2013/08/audit-gives-china-green-light-to-process-us-chicken-96091.html\">Politico\u003c/a>. The plants in question passed USDA inspection in March. Initially, these processors will only be allowed to export chicken products made from birds that were raised in the U.S. and Canada. Because of that, the poultry processors won't be required to have a USDA inspector on site, as \u003cem>The New York Times\u003c/em> \u003ca href=\"http://www.nytimes.com/2013/08/31/business/chinese-chicken-processors-are-cleared-to-ship-to-us.html?_r=3&\">notes\u003c/a>, adding:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"And because the poultry will be processed, it will not require country-of-origin labeling. Nor will consumers eating chicken noodle soup from a can or chicken nuggets in a fast-food restaurant know if the chicken came from Chinese processing plants.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That's a pretty disturbing thought for anyone who's followed the slew of stories regarding food safety failures in China in recent years. As we've \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/blogs/thesalt/2013/05/09/181900858/rat-mutton-and-bird-flu-strange-days-for-meat-eaters-in-shanghai\">previously reported\u003c/a> on The Salt, this year alone, thousands of dead pigs turned up in the waters of Shanghai, rat meat was passed off as mutton and — perhaps most disconcerting for U.S. consumers — there was an outbreak of the \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/templates/archives/archive.php?thingId=176912114\">H7N9 bird flu virus\u003c/a> among live fowl in fresh meat markets.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What's more, critics fear that the changes could eventually open the floodgates for a whole slew of chicken products from China. As the industry publication \u003ca href=\"http://www.worldpoultry.net/Broilers/Markets--Trade/2013/9/China-given-green-light-to-export-poultry-to-US-1351550W/\">World Poultry\u003c/a> notes:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\n\u003cp>\"It is thought ... that the government would eventually expand the rules, so that chickens and turkeys bred in China could end up in the American market. Experts suggest that this could be the first step towards allowing China to export its own domestic chickens to the U.S.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>The USDA's decision comes with a backdrop of long-running trade disputes over meat between the U.S. and China. In a nutshell: China banned U.S. beef exports in 2003 after a case of mad cow disease turned up in a Washington state cow. Then, when the bird flu virus broke out widely among Asian bird flocks in 2004, the U.S. blocked imports of Chinese poultry. China challenged that decision in front of the World Trade Organization, which \u003ca href=\"http://www.wto.org/english/tratop_e/dispu_e/cases_e/ds392_e.htm\">ruled\u003c/a> in China's favor in 2010.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And, chicken lovers, brace yourselves: There's more. A report suggests chicken inspections here in the U.S. might be poised to take a turn for the worse. The Government Accountability Office \u003ca href=\"http://www.gao.gov/assets/660/657144.pdf\">said\u003c/a> this week it has serious \"questions about the validity\" of the new procedures for inspecting poultry across the country.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Basically, these changes would replace many USDA inspectors on chicken processing lines with employees from the poultry companies themselves. The USDA has been piloting the new procedures, which will save money and significantly speed up processing lines, in 29 chicken plants. As \u003cem>The Washington Post\u003c/em> \u003ca href=\"http://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/government-report-new-usda-poultry-inspection-procedures-are-based-on-bad-data/2013/09/03/ef158ece-14bd-11e3-b182-1b3bb2eb474c_story.html\">reports\u003c/a>, the plan is to roll out the new procedures eventually to \"most of the country's 239 chicken and 96 turkey plants.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The problem? According to the GAO, the USDA did a poor job of evaluating the effectiveness of the pilot programs it has in place.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As a result, the report concludes, it's hard to justify the USDA's conclusions that the new procedures will do a better job than current approaches at cutting down on the number of dangerous bacteria like salmonella that pop up on the birds that will later end up on our dinner tables.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, the USDA maintains that the changes will, in fact, boost food safety. In a \u003ca href=\"http://www.foodsafetynews.com/2013/09/full-disclosure-changes-to-poultry-inspections-needed-to-protect-public-health/#.Uij70NKsjTq\">commentary\u003c/a> published on Food Safety News, USDA food safety and inspections administrator \u003ca href=\"http://www.usda.gov/wps/portal/usda/usdahome?contentidonly=true&contentid=bio_almanza.xml\">Alfred Almanza\u003c/a> writes, \"If finalized and implemented broadly, this new inspection system would enable [USDA inspectors] to better fulfill our food safety mission.

The kicker: These products can now be sold in the U.S. without a country-of-origin label.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For starters, just four Chinese processing plants will be allowed to export cooked chicken products to the U.S., as first reported by \u003ca href=\"http://www.politico.com/story/2013/08/audit-gives-china-green-light-to-process-us-chicken-96091.html\">Politico\u003c/a>. The plants in question passed USDA inspection in March. Initially, these processors will only be allowed to export chicken products made from birds that were raised in the U.S. and Canada. Because of that, the poultry processors won't be required to have a USDA inspector on site, as \u003cem>The New York Times\u003c/em> \u003ca href=\"http://www.nytimes.com/2013/08/31/business/chinese-chicken-processors-are-cleared-to-ship-to-us.html?_r=3&\">notes\u003c/a>, adding:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"And because the poultry will be processed, it will not require country-of-origin labeling. Nor will consumers eating chicken noodle soup from a can or chicken nuggets in a fast-food restaurant know if the chicken came from Chinese processing plants.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That's a pretty disturbing thought for anyone who's followed the slew of stories regarding food safety failures in China in recent years. As we've \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/blogs/thesalt/2013/05/09/181900858/rat-mutton-and-bird-flu-strange-days-for-meat-eaters-in-shanghai\">previously reported\u003c/a> on The Salt, this year alone, thousands of dead pigs turned up in the waters of Shanghai, rat meat was passed off as mutton and — perhaps most disconcerting for U.S. consumers — there was an outbreak of the \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/templates/archives/archive.php?thingId=176912114\">H7N9 bird flu virus\u003c/a> among live fowl in fresh meat markets.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What's more, critics fear that the changes could eventually open the floodgates for a whole slew of chicken products from China. As the industry publication \u003ca href=\"http://www.worldpoultry.net/Broilers/Markets--Trade/2013/9/China-given-green-light-to-export-poultry-to-US-1351550W/\">World Poultry\u003c/a> notes:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\n\u003cp>\"It is thought ... that the government would eventually expand the rules, so that chickens and turkeys bred in China could end up in the American market. Experts suggest that this could be the first step towards allowing China to export its own domestic chickens to the U.S.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>The USDA's decision comes with a backdrop of long-running trade disputes over meat between the U.S. and China. In a nutshell: China banned U.S. beef exports in 2003 after a case of mad cow disease turned up in a Washington state cow. Then, when the bird flu virus broke out widely among Asian bird flocks in 2004, the U.S. blocked imports of Chinese poultry. China challenged that decision in front of the World Trade Organization, which \u003ca href=\"http://www.wto.org/english/tratop_e/dispu_e/cases_e/ds392_e.htm\">ruled\u003c/a> in China's favor in 2010.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And, chicken lovers, brace yourselves: There's more. A report suggests chicken inspections here in the U.S. might be poised to take a turn for the worse. The Government Accountability Office \u003ca href=\"http://www.gao.gov/assets/660/657144.pdf\">said\u003c/a> this week it has serious \"questions about the validity\" of the new procedures for inspecting poultry across the country.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Basically, these changes would replace many USDA inspectors on chicken processing lines with employees from the poultry companies themselves. The USDA has been piloting the new procedures, which will save money and significantly speed up processing lines, in 29 chicken plants. As \u003cem>The Washington Post\u003c/em> \u003ca href=\"http://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/government-report-new-usda-poultry-inspection-procedures-are-based-on-bad-data/2013/09/03/ef158ece-14bd-11e3-b182-1b3bb2eb474c_story.html\">reports\u003c/a>, the plan is to roll out the new procedures eventually to \"most of the country's 239 chicken and 96 turkey plants.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The problem? According to the GAO, the USDA did a poor job of evaluating the effectiveness of the pilot programs it has in place.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As a result, the report concludes, it's hard to justify the USDA's conclusions that the new procedures will do a better job than current approaches at cutting down on the number of dangerous bacteria like salmonella that pop up on the birds that will later end up on our dinner tables.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, the USDA maintains that the changes will, in fact, boost food safety. In a \u003ca href=\"http://www.foodsafetynews.com/2013/09/full-disclosure-changes-to-poultry-inspections-needed-to-protect-public-health/#.Uij70NKsjTq\">commentary\u003c/a> published on Food Safety News, USDA food safety and inspections administrator \u003ca href=\"http://www.usda.gov/wps/portal/usda/usdahome?contentidonly=true&contentid=bio_almanza.xml\">Alfred Almanza\u003c/a> writes, \"If finalized and implemented broadly, this new inspection system would enable [USDA inspectors] to better fulfill our food safety mission.
