This presentation by Ricky Schroeder at the 2012 AAFCO Feed Labeling Workshop addresses critical updates in labeling non-pet foods, focusing on mycotoxins such as aflatoxin, fumonisin, ochratoxin, vomitoxin, and zearalenone. It reviews federal action levels for aflatoxins, highlights common sources like corn and peanuts, and underscores changes expected due to the expiration of the MOU with FDA. The workshop provides essential information for compliance with ingredient definitions, labeling practices, and collaboration between state and federal agencies to maintain safe animal feed standards.
