<p>Hundreds of pigs on a farm in Germany must be killed because their meat contains high levels of dioxin, a state agricultural minister has said.</p>
<p>Lower Saxony&#8217;s agriculture minister Gert Hahne said the high levels of the cancer-causing chemical were found on a farm in the county of Verden.</p>
<p>The farm was being examined because it had bought livestock feed from the German firm Harles &#038; Jentzsch, which had produced fat used in tainted feed pellets. Samples of the fat contained more than 70 times the approved amount of dioxin.</p>
<p>The scandal broke last week when German investigators found excessive levels of dioxin in eggs and then some chicken.</p>
<p>Authorities then froze sales of poultry, pork and eggs from thousands of farms. Some 558 remain banned.</p>
