Implementation of the Animal Feed Regulatory Program Standards (AFRPS) and the ISO/OES 17025:2005 Accreditation of the Feed Control Laboratory in the Missouri Department of Agriculture, Bureau of Feed, Seed and Treated Timber. Since Missouri is home to a significant percentage of the nation’s livestock and pet food production, the regulation of feed is of vital importance for the protection of livestock feed and pet food consumers and producers. As evidenced by recent significant feed adulteration events, feed is an important link to the human food supply and is therefore an important element of the human food safety equation. The Bureau of Feed, Seed and Treated Timber (Bureau) has regulatory responsibility of livestock feed and pet food sold, distributed and manufactured in Missouri. The Bureau operates under the authority of the Director of the Missouri Department of Agriculture and within the Division of Plant Industries and also operates the Missouri Feed Control Laboratory (Lab). The Lab analyzes 5,000 surveillance feed samples annually. The feeds represented by these samples are produced both in Missouri and across the nation and are obtained by program inspectors on a weekly basis from retail, distribution and manufacturing firms. The Bureau considers the implementation of AFRPS as an important step in fulfilling its role as a crucial and significant partner with FDA in protection of this state’s and our nation’s food supply. The Bureau ‘s intent is to utilize cooperative grant funds to meet critical needs of the inspection program to realize full implementation of the Standards and the Laboratory goal to achieve ISO/OES 17025:2005 Accreditation within 5 years. The inspection program expects to utilize FDA Cooperative Grant funds to improve program capability in four ways: based on proper risk analysis, increase inspector strength to appropriate levels, provide adequate training to inspectional personnel, disseminate information and education to industry and acquire technology to improve program productivity and efficiency. The Lab will utilize FDA Cooperative Grant funds to expand the capacity of the national food safety system by achieving full ISO/OES 17025:2005 accreditation. Funds will be applied to three areas of focus: increase lab personnel to ensure quality control and provide documentation for accreditation, provide training of chemist and lab personnel, acquire software to improve productivity and efficiency. Grant funding of ISO Accreditation will allow expenditure of state funds to expand feed safety testing including micro-biological and heavy metal detection, further increasing state and national capacity of feed and food protection.

实施动物饲料监管计划标准（AFRP）和 ISO/OES 17025：2005密苏里州的饲料控制实验室认证 饲料，种子和经过处理的木材局农业部。 由于密苏里州是美国牲畜和宠物食品的很大比例 生产，饲料的调节对于保护牲畜饲料和 宠物食品消费者和生产者。如最近的重大饲料掺假所证明的 事件，饲料是与人类粮食供应的重要链接，因此是重要的要素 人类食品安全方程式。 饲料，种子和经过处理的木材局（局）具有监管责任 在密苏里州出售，分发和生产的牲畜饲料和宠物食品。局 在密苏里州农业部董事的授权下运营 植物工业的划分，还经营密苏里饲料控制实验室（LAB）。 该实验室每年分析5,000个监视进料样品。这些代表的提要 样本是在密苏里州和全国范围的 零售，分销和制造公司每周一次检查员。 该局认为实施AFRP是履行其作用的重要一步 与FDA保护该州和我们国家食品的重要合作伙伴 供应。该局的目的是利用合作赠款资金来满足关键需求 检查计划以实现全面实施标准和实验室目标 在5年内实现ISO/OES 17025：2005认证。 检查计划希望利用FDA合作赠款资金来改进计划 以四种方式的功能：基于适当的风险分析，将检查员的强度提高到 适当的水平，为检查人员提供足够的培训，传播信息 和对工业的教育并获取技术以提高计划生产率和 效率。 该实验室将利用FDA合作赠款资金来扩大国家食品的能力 安全系统通过实现全ISO/OES 17025：2005认证。资金将用于 重点的三个领域：增加实验室人员以确保质量控制并提供 认证文件，提供化学家和实验室人员的培训，获取软件 提高生产率和效率。授予ISO认证的资金将允许支出 国家资金扩大饲料安全测试，包括微生物和重金属 检测，进一步的饲料和粮食保护能力进一步提高。
