HACCP
HACCP stands for Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points. This is a
preventative food safety system in which every step in the manufacture,
storage and distribution of a food product is scientifically analyzed for
microbiological, physical and chemical hazards.
Based on seven principles
• PRINCIPLE 1 Conduct a hazard analysis.
• PRINCIPLE 2 Determine the Critical Control Points (CCPs).
• PRINCIPLE 3 Establish critical limit(s).
• PRINCIPLE 4 Establish a system to monitor control of the CCP.
• PRINCIPLE 5 Establish the corrective action to be taken when monitoring indicates that a particular
CCP is not under control.
• PRINCIPLE 6 Establish procedures for verification to confirm that the HACCP system is working
effectively.
• PRINCIPLE 7 Establish documentation concerning all procedures and records appropriate to these
principles and their application

India Scenario
Feed sector in India is clearly at an inflection point
currently and is poised for a glorious future.
• The emergence of modern dairies ranging from 50 animals to
upwards of 500 animals is progressing across India.
• Exports of aqua products are on the increase and India is a
leading player of South Asia currently.
• Poultry segment is seeing a high growth trajectory due to
increase of home consumption as well as Quick Service
Restaurants.

Indian Animal Feed Market:
Drivers
• The population in India is expected to increase continuously in the
medium and long terms. This will create a strong demand for eggs, meat,
milk, etc., in turn increasing the demand for animal feed.
• The Indian government along with private initiatives are increasing the
awareness of better feed practices among farmers. Farmers are getting
more aware about animal health and the importance of a balanced , safe
and nutritional food for their animals.
• Apart from domestic consumption, Indian exports of animal feed are
rising and will also represent an important growth driver during the next
five years.
• Changing lifestyles and rising per capita incomes in India have resulted in
a shift in the dietary habits in the country. This has resulted in an increase
in the consumption of milk and meat, leading to a growing demand for
animal feed.

15. Journey to feed safety
GMP+ chain approach
All these have led to an increased usage of high quality
raw material for feed across all sub segments in India.
However the following points have to be factored in:
• Disease outbreaks are common and remain the single largest
challenge for the poultry, cattle and seafood segments
• Indigenous dairy breeds may not respond to compound feed
effectively, which leads to farmers' reluctance to use
formulated rations for their cattle.
• Lack of awareness and low hygiene conditions add up to the
overall health of livestock
