- Improvement to Feed Safety
- FDA is improving its Animal Feed Safety System, a program to protect human and animal health by ensuring safe animal feeds. The system covers a broad range of agency activities from pre-approving additives for use in feed, to establishing limits on feed contaminants, providing education and training to federal and state feed regulatory personnel, conducting inspections, and taking enforcement actions to ensure compliance with agency regulations.
FDA carries out its animal feed regulatory responsibilities in cooperation with state and local partners, and works together with AAFCO on uniform feed ingredient definitions and proper labeling.
Barley, as a natural one among all the animal feeds, can receive well the examining from FDA and the public.
