OSIJEK, Nov 26 (Hina) - In the first ten months of this year, a total of 56,493 samples of pork meat have been tested in Osijek-Baranja County, and 181 samples have been found to be positive for trichinosis. Ernest Nad, head of the
County Chamber of Commerce's agricultural department, said last year 913 samples of the tested 154,542 were positive. The largest number of samples are tested in November and December when most pigs are slaughtered, Nad said, and warned that meat should be sent for testing, even more so as the state is paying for the expert destruction of diseased meat.(hina) lml
