Jan Cortenbach: Future arrangements on feed safety and quality

Future arrangements on feed safety and quality what do we consider as our goal Jan Cortenbach, CTO, Wellhope – De Heus

Quality for human and animals ‘ Feed for food’

Quality management systems
ISO
ISO 9000 :Quality management
ISO 14000 :Environmental management
ISO 22000: Feed safety
HACCP food (analysis of critical control points)
GMP/GMP+ (Good manufacturing practice)
Lab-code (approved laboratory)
Additional systems
Approved feed chain programs (ISO 22005)
Feed track-and-trace
European Feed Team
EU registration (183/2005)

ISO
ISO is a standard for the system in quality management in an organisation and the way the company handles this standards.
Quality system should be written and all employees should know.
Focusing on customer satisfaction
Production according the laws and requirements of customeres
Still does not guarantee a good product

Key points of HACCP
Conduct a hazard analysis
Identify critical control points
Establish critical limits for each critical control point
Establish critical control point monitoring requirements
Establish corrective actions
Establish record keeping procedures
Establish procedures for ensuring the HACCP system is working as intended

GMP guidelines
Manufacturing processes are clearly defined and controlled. All critical processes are validated to ensure consistency and compliance with specifications.
Changes in manufacturing process are evaluated. Changes that have an impact on the quality are validated as necessary.
Instructions and procedures are written in clear and unambiguous language.
Operators are trained to carry out and document procedures.
Records are made, manually or by instruments, during manufacture that demonstrate that all the steps required by the defined procedures and instructions were in fact taken and that the quantity and quality was as expected.
Deviations are investigated and documented.
Manufacturing record (including distribution) for tracing A system is available for recalling from sale or supply.
Complaints handling procedures
Includes HACCP

Lab-code
Laboratory certification
For a range of analysis but not for everything
Fixed analysis procedures
Checking and calibration of own analysis
Comparing with other laboratory

In practice
All incoming samples of raw materials are analysed.
If data are not in the established range
Product will be rejected
Data in formulation are updated
Less/more inclusion rate
Other nutrient parameters

Errors in Analysis (Whitaker & Dicken,1974) 100% Error LOT Sample Subsample 88% Sampling Error 10% Subsampling Error Analysis 2% Analysis Error

Sampling is difficult !!

Size of sample depends:
Homgeneity of the material to analyze
Size of the batch
potential degree of variation of the parameter(s) in question through the whole,
Significance and intended use of the analytical result

Frequency of sampling
Storage time
raw material
sample
potential degree of change of the parameter(s)

What is 1ppb? (1µg/kg)
1 part in 1.000.000.000
1 second in 32 years
1 grain of sand in 22 kg
1 kernel of corn in 3,5 rail cars
1 chinese older than 15 years in whole china
Sampling : the ppb-problem

Sampling : the distribution-problem Even distribution, e.g. Proteins Uneven distribution, e.g. Mycotoxins

The right sampling
use the appropriate equipment .
use a sampling pattern to collect samples from all areas
of the lot.
take the appropriate sample size . 3-10 pound sample
from a truck or railcar of grain.
store the samples prior analysis in a cool and dry place
in paper or cloth bags to avoid microbial and mould
growth.

Sampling Pattern Probe - Sampling Pattern for Truck or Trailer Loads of Corn. Sample all Points Marked “ O ” Initially. Sample all Points Marked “ X ” if More Grain Sample is Needed

After production
Checking of end product
Keep samples at least until expiry date
Keep records of produced batches and deliveries
To who
By who

One type of feed per feed production line
Rodent control
Bulk delivery of raw materials
Own transport
Heat treatment / pelleting
Proper storage
Automization
Other measurements to ensure quality

Quality is more than only regulations and law enforcement
High quality raw materials
Constant quality raw material

Corn milling differences

Uniform, relative coarse AND very constant .
Easy flowing, no decomposing in silo and feed system; no selective eating
Homogeneous milling

Good and homogeneous mixing
order of adding materials in the mixer
Amount of liquids and fats added
Mixing time

Good quality pellet
Correct pelleting temperature
No lost of vitamines, enzymes etc.
Killing bacteria (salmonella)
Hardness of the pellet
Durability of the pellet
Size apropriate for animals to feed
Low dust content

Feed meets all nutritional requirements of the animal.
No harmfull substances
Mycotoxins
Medicin residues
Hormomes
Antibiotics
Pesticides

Service to customers
Good packaging
Give the right formulations with concentrate , premix or roughage
Disease prevention
Management advice
Credits
Logistics of farm products

Good quality is:
when your customers are satisfied because their animals perform well

Dioxin problem
YES !
Why?
The company Harles & Jentzsch was GMP+ certified, but they did not work according GMP+ rules.
Certification was cancelled.
Could it also have happened to us?

BUT…..
Fatty acids is a high risk group of raw materials
Additional and extensive control
Visit of supplier
Supplier must have not only GMP+ but also complete tracing and tracking
All steps in the production and trainsport chain are known
Every incoming batch is analyzed

In case it happens
participants have insurance for their customers
We are giving on customer request certificates to clarify we do not buy from this particular supplier
