AAI Submits Comments on Proposed FSMA Rules


This week, AAI CEO Joel Brinkmeyer submitted official comments to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on proposed rules under the Food Safety and Modernization Act (FSMA) that would establish current good manufacturing practices and requirements for hazard analysis and risk-based preventive controls for animal feed and pet food.  AAI also signed on to the American Feed Industry Association’s and National Grain and Feed Association’s comments.

Over 2,100 comments were submitted to the FDA on this proposed rule.  AAI thanks our members who responded to our request to file individual comments with the FDA.

AAI’s Grain and Feed & Livestock Committees will continue to monitor rule creation under the FSMA and educate our members on the evolving implementation of this legislation.
