SHANGHAI: Starting next year residents will be able to trace the farms where their eggs came from and what the chickens were fed, the Shanghai food and drug administration (SFDA) said yesterday
"It is part of the city's effort to ensure food safety and quality," the SFDA said.
All businesses operating in the food industry will have to label their products showing where the contents came from and its nutritional value.
