Informationen
The monitoring of animal feed is the responsibility of the states. Official animal feed monitoring is a cornerstone of consumer health protection. The production and feeding of safe animal feed is a prerequisite for the production of safe, high-quality animal-based food products. It is also crucial for the health and well-being of animals.
Each district office employs a veterinary assistant who carries out tasks related to veterinary and feed law. In the area of feed, the veterinary assistants’ duties include taking samples from dealers, manufacturers, and farmers. The qualification for this is obtained through a training program specifically designed for feed sampling. For each batch, up to 100 individual samples are taken in accordance with Regulation (EC) No. 152/2009; these are used to form a composite sample, from which three final samples are then taken. Between 2,500 and 3,000 official feed samples are taken in Bavaria each year.
