# Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Water Management of the Republic of Serbia

The ministry responsible for food safety. In the 2013 aflatoxin affair, it recalled batches of milk and then proposed and defended a permitted limit ten times higher; Vučić announced at the time that at least four of those responsible in the ministry would be dismissed. It placed the farm of one of the most vocal opponents of the Jadar mine in passive status for five years, leaving him without subsidies; he says the decision was political.
