Federal Feeds legislation has regulated the manufacture and marketing of livestock feed in Canada since the early 1900s. Two federal regulatory initiatives being developed include Regulations Respecting the Making of Medicated Feeds (to better protect health and food safety) and changes to the Health of Animals Regulations (removal of bovine specific risk material). The proposed Regulations have two basic objectives: all medicated feeds should contain the intended level of medication, and carryover during manufacturing should be managed so that there is no detectable residues in future feed. Hitting medication targets set by Health Canada is a must for the health of the animals and the humans. Scales and measuring devices must be calibrated at the time of installation and at least once a year after that. Mixer performance testing must also be performed at the time of installation and at least once a year after that. This is to determine whether the mixing equipment is capable of producing feeds of uniform consistency. Drug residues and carryover must be directed toward a lower-risk feed via sequencing practices and appropriate use of flush material.
