The use in stockfarming of certain substances having a hormonal or thyrostatic action

This procedure aims to prohibit the use of certain substances with hormonal or thyrostatic effects in livestock farming. The goal is to ensure food safety and protect public health by preventing these growth-promoting chemicals from entering the human food chain through meat and dairy products.

This regulation primarily affects livestock farmers and the veterinary pharmaceutical industry. It mandates stricter controls on animal feed and medication to eliminate the use of banned growth promoters across the EU.
