  • Indramayu, West Java, has deployed 30 health officials to inspect sacrificial animals ahead of Eid al-Adha.
  • The inspection ensures that animals and their meat are healthy and fit for consumption, with a "healthy label" awarded to approved animals.
  • Officials will conduct pre-slaughter (antemortem) and post-slaughter (postmortem) examinations until the religious holiday concludes.

As the holy days of Eid al-Adha approach, the Indramayu Regency in West Java is taking proactive measures to ensure the community's spiritual observance is also a healthy one. Our Department of Food Security and Agriculture (DKPP) has launched a comprehensive inspection program for sacrificial animals.

Today we are launching the inspection of sacrificial animals at the Indramayu Regency level.

· Dian DajuHead of Animal Health and Veterinary Public Health at the Indramayu Regency's Department of Food Security and Agriculture, announcing the inspection program.

This initiative, spearheaded by Dian Daju, Head of Animal Health and Veterinary Public Health, involves deploying 30 dedicated health officials across the region. Their mission is to meticulously examine every animal intended for sacrifice, ensuring they meet all health and eligibility criteria. Animals found to be in prime condition will be proudly marked with a "healthy label."

If the sacrificial animal is healthy, then we give it a healthy label necklace.

· Dian DajuExplaining the process of identifying healthy sacrificial animals.

This rigorous process, encompassing both pre-slaughter (antemortem) and post-slaughter (postmortem) examinations, is crucial for public well-being. It guarantees that the meat distributed and consumed during Eid al-Adha is not only ritually acceptable but also free from disease. We urge the public to look for the "healthy label" when selecting their sacrificial animals, a clear sign of quality and safety endorsed by our local authorities.

To the public, we urge them to choose sacrificial animals that already have a healthy label necklace.
