Dairy giants pledge to improve quality control

HOHHOT: China's two biggest dairy giants Mengniu and Yili yesterday pledged to take control of milk collection and encourage farmers to send their cattle to company farms for better quality control.

The two also said their current products are totally safe.

Their products, along with those of many other domestic brands, were last month found to contain melamine, an industrial chemical used in plastics but banned in the food industry.
