800 kg of suspicious cutlets found in the Nizhny Novgorod region

      March 24, 2026 18:55 Society The Rosselkhoznadzor reported violations in the processing of electronic veterinary documents for fish products in the Nizhny Novgorod region and Mari El. According to the agency, on March 20, LLC "ECOPRODUCT NN" issued production electronic veterinary certificates for frozen cod and squid cutlets. During the inspection, it was found that the volume of finished products significantly exceeded the volume of the declared raw materials. At the same time, the declared volumes of raw materials raised questions. To produce 312 kilograms of cod cutlets, the manufacturer declared 125 kilograms of frozen glazed pollock without heads. And for 500 kilograms of squid cutlets — 125 kilograms of frozen commander squid. Thus, the volume of finished products turned out to be approximately one and a half times greater than the volume of raw materials used. As a result of the analysis of production operations, the average ratio of "product-raw material" was 1.775, with a deviation from the average value of 0.83. As a result, the production electronic veterinary certificate was annulled. Warnings were issued to authorized persons. It was previously reported that 16.5 tons of beef were processed through a fictitious account in the Nizhny Novgorod region. NIA "Nizhny Novgorod" has a Telegram channel.
