Lesson 8

Good Production Practice #8

Follow appropriate on-farm feed and commercial feed processor procedures.

2Good Production Practice 8

Objectives

• This lesson will help you :– Explain the components of current Good

Manufacturing Practices (cGMPs)– Explain how the cGMPs help prevent feed

contamination and ensure accurate mixing

3Good Production Practice 8

Medicated Feed and cGMPs

• The current Good Manufacturing Practices for processing medicated feed are guidelines that set standards for:– Buildings and grounds– Equipment– Workspace and storage areas– Product quality assurance– Labeling– Recordkeeping

4Good Production Practice 8

cGMPs• Buildings and grounds

– Clean, adequate space– Pest controls in place

• Equipment – Clean and safe

• Workspace and storage – Designed to prevent contamination,

organized

5Good Production Practice 8

cGMPs

• Product Quality Assurance – Laboratory test conducted or information

available

• Labeling – Medications properly handled and stored– Labels permanently attached to all medicated

feed containers

• Recordkeeping – Production records kept for 1 year – Samples of feed and ingredients kept for 6

months

6Good Production Practice 8

Feed Manufacturing

• Goals for manufacturing quality feed include:– Feed meets nutritional

specifications– Fee meets desired medication level

(if medicated)– Feed is free of contaminants (or

below tolerance levels)

7Good Production Practice 8

Mixing Medicated Feeds

• Proper drug concentrations are important to:– Achieve desired benefits of the

drug– Prevent adverse health effects

or violative residues– No extra-label usage allowed

Feeding Practices

• Do not feed swine feed to other animals

• Follow label instructions when feeding animals
