Product overview / performance
GMP+ Feed Safety Assurance As of December 2021, 19,139 companies in over 87 countries worldwide were GMP+ Feed Safety Assurance (FSA) certified. This constitutes an increase of 513 (+2.75%) compared to 2020. In close cooperation with the GMP+ committees, who represent the GMP+ Community, a number of changes to the scheme have been prepared and implemented in the GMP+ standards. The changes mainly concern corrections - better explanation of the requirements, alignment with the GMP+ FC scheme 2020 principles and better alignment with the daily practice of GMP+ certified companies. Some changes address content topics: • Control of residues & homogeneity, • Exclusion of production from GMP+ certification, • Partial lifting of the feed ban, • Performance criteria for pesticides analysed by registered laboratories.
