Consumers still unsure of Chinese dairy quality

Many Chinese consumers remain skeptical about domestic dairy products, despite a reassuring report from an industry association stating that the quality of domestic milk products has improved substantially.

The Dairy Association of China report, published on Tuesday, said 99.5 percent of dairy products checked last year were up to standard, and no illegal additives, such as melamine, had been detected in fresh milk for the past seven years.

The report compiled the results of inspections on 151,000 batches of dairy products carried out by the Ministry of Agriculture since 2009.
