The research team led by Qin Yuchang at the Institute of Animal Sciences of CAAS has made many breakthroughs in key technologies, such as the detection of illegal additives and toxic & harmful substances in feed, the quality and safety control during the feed processing process, and the establishment of feed processing traceability system. These breakthroughs construct a whole industry chain feed quality and safety control technology system of “detection control-processing guarantee-system management”. The achievements obtained 12 invention patents and eight software copyrights, led to the formulation or revision of 10 national standards and five industrial standards, were published in 289 papers (including 88 SCI/EI papers) and six books, and were awarded three first prizes such as Shennong China Agricultural Science and Technology Award. The project has been promoted and applied in more than 1,000 feed mills and breeding enterprises in the country and created a cumulative economic benefit of 8.057 billion RMB, leading the progress and development of feed quality and safety control technology and ensuring the quality and safety of livestock products.
