    According to the data, Fonterra group, founded in 2001, is a global cooperative enterprise At present, Fonterra group is the largest dairy processing and export enterprise in the world 90% of Fonterra's products are exported to more than 140 countries and regions in the world In other words, you can buy products from Fonterra milk all over the world At the same time, on May 1 this year, the measures for the supervision and administration of the inspection and Quarantine of imported and exported dairy products were implemented, but the dairy products imported and exported by express mail, mail or passengers were not included in the supervision scope of the measures This also means that it may be difficult to control the risk of buying milk powder through informal channels such as online purchasing Compared with more than 1000 jars of Abbott, 140000 jars of "Niulan" milk powder produced in Hong Kong are more toxic than 140000 jars of Abbott, which is also two batches Niulan brand milk powder announced on August 5 that, due to the possible pollution of some raw materials provided by Fonterra New Zealand, Niulan brand carried out preventive recovery of 3178 and 3179 batch of the third stage infant feeding milk powder, and the consumption period was June 27 and 28, 2015, respectively The above batch number and consumption period were clearly marked on the bottom of the milk powder tank The Hong Kong Food Safety Center said that the two batches involved about 140000 cans of milk powder entering Hong Kong and Macao, more than 80000 of which entered the retail sector, but the number of sales is unknown In recent years, the popularity of Niulan milk powder has risen, and there are many fans in the mainland, especially the people who buy it on behalf of others However, the relevant milk powder purchased through the purchasing channel cannot be returned temporarily in the mainland, and in some online stores selling Hong Kong version milk powder, the seller also did not give a clear prompt on how to return the milk powder, so many mothers panicked The reporter saw on a mother and infant forum that some mothers who had bought the batch of milk powder in question were discussing how to deal with the loss of the small ticket, or even the opening of the can or even the eating of the milk powder They had to go to the local retail outlets in Hong Kong for the return of the milk powder, which cost a lot China suspended indefinitely yesterday, Fonterra group released a message confirming that Chinese government departments suspended the import of whey powder (including concentrated whey protein) and milk powder based powder (whey based dairy ingredients used for the production of infant formula) produced by Fonterra and made in Australia with the whey powder protein of Fonterra as raw materials So far, there is no definite time limit for the suspension of import "MPI (Ministry of primary industry of New Zealand) confirmed that China has not closed the market for dairy products in New Zealand - and that the scope of China's suspension of imports of Fonterra products is specific, and that the import of whole milk powder and skimmed milk powder has not been suspended." Fonterra said Song Liang, a dairy researcher at the China business circulation Productivity Promotion Center, said that whey protein powder is a kind of high-quality protein for infants, which is extracted from milk by advanced technology, with small molecule, high absorption and utilization rate Song Liang said that in addition to adding various microelements for infants, an important indicator of infant formula is to be close to breast milk, so the proportion of whey protein and casein from skimmed milk powder and whole milk powder in infant formula is 6:4 For this Botox pollution incident, at present, some domestic dairy companies said that their products did not use the concentrated whey protein powder of New Zealand Fonterra "80% of the bulk raw materials imported from China come from New Zealand, but the imported whey protein powder produced in New Zealand is very small, about 1% - 2% Most of the rest are imported from the United States and EU countries, so the suspension of whey protein import will not have any impact." Song Liang said As for whether the price of infant formula milk powder will rise in the future, some experts believe that domestic enterprises can also choose other enterprises in New Zealand or other countries to import related products The reason for suspending the price rise is not sufficient.
