Abstract Standardization plays a critical role in ensuring the quality and safety of products from livestock and poultry
slaughtering. Improving the livestock and poultry slaughtering system will promote the standardization of the slaughtering
industry, and drive its transformation, upgrading and healthy development. This paper analyzes problems with the
current livestock and slaughtering standard system in China, proposes the principles of constructing livestock and poultry
slaughtering standard system, and clarifies the structural elements of the system in three dimensions including product
category, production process and standard type. It also puts forward the framework of the standard system and analyzes the
main contents involved in the construction of the system i.e., basic standards, processing technical standards, product quality
standards, control and management standards, inspection standards, production guarantee standards, supplement standards
and others. Herein we also present some suggestions on implementing the standards system including establishing a unified
organization for reviewing slaughtering standards, developing a platform for sharing livestock and poultry slaughtering
standards, overhauling and revising the existing standards as well as formulating new standards, and strengthening the
propaganda of the standards.
