المملكة: “Ruth, crater and slaughterhouse waste” is the most prominent prohibition of feed

The Food and Drug Authority has offered the new technical regulations for feed and feed additions, through the “reconnaissance” platform, which aims to regulate the animal feed industry in the Kingdom and ensure its safety in line with public health requirements and environmental protection.
The regulations included defining the components allowed in feed, and prohibitions that prevent them from entering the industry under any circumstance.
The regulation focuses on raw feed, whether it contains a nutritional value or not, in addition to setting an organizational framework for feed additives, and classifying them according to the purpose of their use, while determining their maximum proportions according to the type of animal.

Mint requirements

In its regulations, the authority stressed the necessity of matching all the materials involved in the feed industry for Gulf specifications and regulations, provided that they are free of animal impurities and insects with their phases, rodents and their waste, while allowing a percentage of impurities not exceeding 0.25% of the weight of the dry material as a maximum.
The commission stressed the necessity of feed to be free of any strange or contaminated materials such as cutting stones, glass or minerals, and obligated that they do not contain harmful growth stimuli such as hormone vehicles, or any manifestations of corruption such as rotting, momentum and strange lumps.
The requirements also included adhering to the maximum limits of pollutants and pesticides, and the requirement for the approval of the competent authority before using any feed additions that are not included in the approved tables.

Feed prohibitions

The regulation focused on a list of wide prohibitions that prohibited their use in the animal feed industry, which included animal farms such as blue, poultry brush, cows and sheep, as well as slaughterhouse waste from non -sacrifices or not suitable for human consumption, such as blood, bladder, uterus, rumen content, hair, hair, and tanned leather.
The prohibitions also included the waste of the “sludge” sewage stations, the waste of household cities at any stage of the plural, and the remnants of the uneducated restaurants, in addition to prohibiting the recycling of pesticide and fertilizer packages to fill feed.
The list included an explicit ban for the use of meat, its products and its derivatives from the jumpsuit, especially those associated with the risks of cow’s madness, such as the positive sacrifices of the BSE test, the brain and spinal cord of livestock over the age of thirty months.

The permitted feed

On the other hand, the authority allowed the use of a number of grain products such as: barley, yellow corn, millet, oats, rice, feed wheat, white corn, and buckwheat.
Secondary products of grains were included in the permissible materials such as: barley bran, rice break, corn flour, corn germ, and wheat bran. The luxury feed also includes dried and cubic clover, apple pulp, grapes and sugar cane, barley crust, peas straw, and beets.

Animal, human and environment

These measures come within the authority’s efforts to enhance the safety of the food chain, and prevent the leakage of dangerous components to the ecosystem or to animal food, which may later affect human health.
The authority stressed the necessity of fully adhering to the technical regulations, especially with regard to the careful classification of feed additions and determining their lineage according to the animal type.
