LDAF Feed Program Implementation of the Animal Feed Regulatory Program Standards (AFRPS)

项目摘要/摘要 路易斯安那州农林部(LDAF)农业化学部 饲料计划通过合规教育、执行规则和 法规、与饲料有关的投诉的调查、动物饲料的常规抽样和常规 检查饲料设施。 基于农化事业部战略规划和AFRPS初步评估 执行时，合作协议所需的馈送计划包括： 1.制定一种评估Feed计划法律权威的方法，以确保保护 人和动物的健康。 2.制定饲料检查员培训课程，支持AFRPS要求和 我们基于风险的检验计划的需要，以确保饲料的知识、技能和能力 检查人员。 3.建立一个系统，以确定基于风险的检查工作计划和充分的检查 调查方案。 4.建立一种方法来评估我们在外地和办事处的饲料检验培训能力 程序，以验证我们培训课程的有效性。 5.设计一种与其他机构沟通的方式和传播信息的方式 与饲料有关的紧急情况和跨部门事件的时间。 6.制定书面政策和程序，概述我们的Feed计划的执行策略。 7.创建并启动全州范围内关于Feed主题的教育推广活动，其中包括培训 监管者、产业界、学术界和消费者之间的活动和公开交流。 8.创建一种方法来评估执行常规饲料工作所需的资源，以便 确保饲料计划得到足够的支持，以实现工作计划的目标。 9.标准化样本采集程序，以确保与饲料计划保持一致 优先事项。 确保实验室程序与美国饲料协会保持一致 控制官员(AAFCO)质量保证/质量控制指南，并满足 国际标准化组织/国际电工委员会17025：2005年的管理和技术要求，以保证有效和 可防御的实验室检测数据，以保护人和动物的健康。 11.设计评审制度，确保根据年内每个标准对饲料计划进行定期评估 以实施必要的改进。 饲料计划和实验室计划的实施和持续改进 通过AFRPS的程序将帮助路易斯安那州和食品和药物管理局(FDA)。 更好地指导监管活动，以防止饲料生产合规问题和 提高美国的食品安全。

Project Summary/Abstract The Louisiana Department of Agriculture and Forestry’s (LDAF) Division of Agricultural Chemistry Feed Program promotes feed and food safety through compliance education, enforcement of rules and regulations, investigation of feed-related complaints, routine sampling of animal feeds and routine inspection of feed facilities. Based on the Agricultural Chemistry Division Strategic Plan and the AFRPS initial assessment performed, the feed program needs for the cooperative agreement include: 1. Develop a means to evaluate the Feed Program’s legal authority to ensure the protection of the health of man and animals. 2. Craft a feed inspector training course curriculum, supporting the AFRPS requirements and the needs of our risk-based inspection program to ensure the knowledge, skills and abilities of feed inspection staff. 3. Construct a system to determine a risk-based inspection workplan and adequate inspection and investigation protocol. 4. Establish a means to evaluate our feed inspection training competencies, for both field and office procedures, to verify the effectiveness of our training curriculum. 5. Design a means to communicate with other agencies and a way to disseminate information in times of feed-related emergencies and cross-sector events. 6. Develop written policies and procedures that outline our Feed Program’s enforcement strategies. 7. Create and launch statewide educational outreach about feed topics which incorporates training activities and open communication between regulators, industry, academia and the consumer. 8. Create a means to evaluate the necessary resources to perform routine feed work in order to assure the Feed Program has adequate support to meet the goals of the workplan. 9. Standardize procedures for sample collection to ensure alignment with the Feed Program’s priorities. 10. Ensure the alignment of the laboratory procedures with the Association of American Feed Control Officials (AAFCO) Quality Assurance/Quality Control guidelines and meet the managerial and technical requirements of ISO/IEC 17025:2005 in order to guarantee valid and defensible laboratory testing data to protect the health of man and animals. 11. Design a review system to ensure periodic assessment of the feed program per each Standard in order to implement necessary improvement. The implementation and continuous improvement of the feed program and laboratory plans and procedures through the AFRPS will assist both Louisiana and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to better direct regulatory activities toward preventing feed manufacturing compliance issues and increasing food safety in the United States.
