Abstract

The inspection of products of animal origin, carried out by veterinary agricultural inspectors, is based on the Brazilian legislation described in the Regulation of Industrial and Sanitary Inspection of Products of Animal Origin of the Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock and Supply. On March 29, 2017, Decree No. 9,013 was published, which repeals Decree No. 30,691, of 1952, with this, major changes occurred in the legislation described in RIISPOA, such as the criteria used for judging carcasses. The objective of this study was to verify whether these changes had an impact on condemnations of bovine carcasses because of cysticercosis and tuberculosis in the State of Rio Grande do Sul. The number of animals slaughtered and the number of carcasses condemned because of tuberculosis and cysticercosis between 2014 and 2020 were obtained from the database of the Agricultural Defense System (SDA), the official data system of the Secretariat of Agriculture, Livestock and Rural Development (SEAPDR), it was possible to observe an increase in the number of cases of carcasses condemned because of cysticercosis and a reduction of animals affected by the disease in the period after the changes in the regulation. The number of carcasses condemned because of tuberculosis, as well as the number of animals affected by the disease, remained stable after the changes in the regulation. The results showed that the changes in federal legislation had a real impact on the historical series of condemnations of bovine carcasses due to cysticercosis in the state of Rio Grande do Sul. In carcasses affected by tuberculosis, the impact of carcass condemnation on the historical series after changes was not significant.
