Reports from 1986 reveal severe issues in livestock farming in Cluj County during the last years of the communist regime. The lack of feed led to high mortality rates among birds, cannibalism in poultry farms, and decreased egg production. Documents from the Cluj Security Service highlighted that both agricultural cooperatives and state enterprises were affected. In January 1986, over 200 calves at CAP Mănăstireni faced imminent death due to inadequate care. The poultry industry also suffered, with significant drops in egg production and weight of chickens due to feed shortages. By April, mortality rates among birds reached approximately 10,000 per day. Additionally, reports indicated unpaid salaries and a serious incident in November 1986 involving neurotoxic substance poisoning livestock in two farms, leading to numerous animal sacrifices.
