The silence around the lambsLambfrom New Zealand: Imagine a flock of sheep grazing peacefully on green pastures. Grassland-based, natural, animal-friendly, organic.

Fattened with antibiotics

The truth is different: In New Zealand, lambs are fattened with antibiotics as performance enhancers. "The use of non-hormonal performance enhancers, such as antibiotics, is a prohibited production method in Switzerland and must be declared accordingly for imported lamb meat," confirms Jürg Jordi from the Federal Office for Agriculture (FOAG).

How about adapting the product information on Migipedia accordingly, as is the case with LeShop?

"Since March 1, 2016, lamb from New Zealand must be declared as 'May have been produced with non-hormonal performance enhancers such as antibiotics'," says Jordi.
