7.2 Agmark replied consisting of a design incorporating the

number of certificate of authorization, the word "AGMARK",

name of the commodity, grade designation and resembling

as the one-set in Schedule-in.

8. Method of Packing: Before packing the gizzard rid of

the internal content's and mucosal layer, the heart after removal

of pericardium, trie liver without gall bladder and the neck

should be placed into the abdominal cavity of the carcass

enclosed in a food wade, polyethylene bag. The carcass may

be dressed by folding back the wings and introducing the

legs through the abdominal opening out through the vent

opening. Dressed chicken shall be packed in the polyethylene

bans fatl ast 50 microns) and shall be immersed into vr<ti

containing water to expel the contant of air between the

carcass and the bag and heat sealed or vacuum packed.

9. Method of Marking: The grade designation mark should

b? nrinted on food

grade polyethylene

bags suitable

for

nackapinff chilled or frozen dressed chicken as prescribed

under rule 7, The authorized packer may after obtaining tho

prior written approval of the Competent Authority, mark

his private trade mark on a package, provided that the private

trade mark does not represent a quality of dressed chicken

different from that Indicated by the grade designation mark

affixed to the package in accordance with these rules.

1ft. Sampling: Representative

samples

of

the

dressed

chicken for testing conformity with these rules shall be drawn

according to the method described below :

10.1 General requirements of Samplings:

10.1.1 Samplinp ihall br, done by a Gazetted Officer not

below the rank of Marketing Officer of tho Directorate of

Marketing and Inspection In the pretence of authorized packer

or hh representative.

U9i

10.1.2 Samples ihall be stored at a temperature ranging

from 1 degree Celsiui to 2 degree Celiius.

10.2 Scale of Sampling:

10.2.1 In any consignment, all the packages of the same

type and the same grade shall

be

grouped

together

to

constitute a lot,

10.2.2 The number of packages to be selected from the lot

shall depend on the size of the lot and shall be as given

below:

10.2.3 The packages shall be selected at random. In order

to ensure the randomness of selection, a random tabto ihall

be used. In case such table is not available, the following

procedure may be adopted.

Starting from any package in the lot, count them as 1, 2,

3 etc. upto Y in a systematic manner, where V is equal to

the integral part of the value of N/n 'N' being the total

number of packages in the lot and V the number of packaget

to be chosen (see 10.2.2). Every 'r'th package thug counted

shall be picked up until the requisite number of packages it

obtained from the lot to constitute samples for the test.

11. Agmark Greding Charges.—A fee at the rate of Rs. %

per 10 kilograms of dressed chicken subject to a minimum

of Rs. 250 for local inspection (within 100 kms.) and Ri. 500

for outside inspection.
