1 Introduction
1.1 General
The GMP+ Feed Certification scheme was initiated and developed in 1992 by the Dutch feed industry in response to various more or less serious incidents involving contamination in feed materials. Although it started as a national scheme, it has developed to become an international scheme that is managed by GMP+ International in collaboration with various international stakeholders.
Even though the GMP+ Feed Certification scheme originated from a feed safety
perspective, in 2013 the first feed responsibility standard has been published. For
this purpose, two modules are created: GMP+ Feed Safety Assurance (focussed
on feed safety) and GMP+ Feed Responsibility Assurance (focussed on responsi-
ble feed).
GMP+ Feed Safety Assurance is a complete module with standards for the assur-
ance of feed safety in all the links of the feed chain. Demonstrable assurance of
feed safety is a 'license to sell’ in many countries and markets and participation in
the GMP+ FSA module can facilitate this excellently. Based on needs in practice,
multiple components have been integrated into the GMP+ FSA standards, such as
requirements for a feed safety management system, for application of HACCP prin-
ciples, to traceability, monitoring, prerequisites programmes, chain approach and
the Early Warning System.
With the development of the GMP+ Feed Responsibility Assurance module, GMP+
International is responding to requests from GMP+ participants. The animal feed
sector is confronted with requests to operate more responsible. This includes, for
example, the sourcing of soy and fishmeal which are produced and traded with
respect for humans, animals and the environment. In order to demonstrate respon-
sible production and trade, a company can get certified for the GMP+ Feed Re-
sponsibility Assurance. GMP+ International facilitates via independent certification
the demands from the market.
Together with the GMP+ partners, GMP+ International transparently lays down
clear requirements in the Feed Certification scheme. Certification bodies are able to
carry out GMP+ certification independently.
GMP+ International supports the GMP+ participants with useful and practical infor-mation by way of a number of guidance documents, databases, newsletters, Q&A lists and seminars.
1.2 Structure of the GMP+ Feed Certification scheme
The documents within the GMP+ Feed Certification scheme are subdivided into a number of series. The next page shows a schematic representation of the content of the GMP+ Feed Certification scheme:

PART A: PRODUCT STANDARDS
Introduction to the product standards
There are references in the various GMP+ standards to the product standards. This
part of this appendix contains the legal and a number of additional GMP+ product
standards with respect to contaminants. The product standards included in
this appendix are:
a. the product standards as laid down in the European Union feed legislation, or
b. a number of product standards, as determined within the framework of the
GMP+ FSA scheme in consultation with the subsequent links in the animal pro-
duction chain.
DISCLAIMER: The GMP+ International has adopted this list in order to inform in-
terested parties with respect to the standards in the legislation (European Union
and additional GMP+ standards). The list will be regularly updated. The GMP+ In-
ternational is not liable for any errors in this list.
2 Conditions
In arriving at the product standards a distinction has been made between action and rejection limits. The action limits for undesirable contaminants is appreciably lower than the rejection limit. Action limit: A feasible limit agreed in consultation with the sector, supplier or customer. Where the action limit is exceeded an investigation must be carried out into the source of the contamination and measures must be taken to remove or limit the source of the contamination. Rejection limit: A feasible limit agreed in consultation with the sector, supplier or customer. If the rejection limit is exceeded then the product is not suitable for use as a feed mate- rial or animal feed. In the various GMP+ standards it is stated that the participant must ensure that de-
viations (in the product or process) from the requirements in this standard are rec-
orded and controlled in order to prevent unintentional use or delivery of the product.
Product standards for mixes of feed materials (semi-manufactured product) which
are marketed as such
The product standards for the maximum level of undesirable substances is calcu-
lated proportionately from the product standard for the individual components. This calculation principle is also applied for the calculation of the product standard for pesticides for compound feeds (see section 4.2.4 question no.5).

4 Residue levels of pesticides in feeds
4.1 Introduction
A start was made in April 2005 in the EU on the revision of the community legisla-
tion with respect to the permitted maximum levels of residues of pesticides by way
of Regulation (EG) No. 396/2005. This regulation includes the maximum residue
levels (MRL) for simple products of vegetable and animal origin intended for human
consumption and for feeds. In as much as the MRLs apply to feeds they are appli-
cable to both feeds for food-producing animals and for non-food-producing animals.
The layout of the standard is such that in many cases it is not possible immediately
to indicate a standard for a certain combination of feed / pesticide. This chapter
indicates: a. How the correct standard for a simple, untreated/unprocessed product can be
out-of-date; b. How the correct standard for a derived product can be determined; c. How the correct standard for a compound feed can be determined; d. Which special requirements apply.
4.2 The establishment of and MRL
4.2.1 General
The MRLs (maximum residue levels) are established for simple products. Many of
these MRLs are to be found on “Pesticides Web”, a database which was created by
the EC.
(http://ec.europa.eu/sanco_pesticides/public/index.cfm?event=substance.selection
&ch=1) This is almost always the untreated form of a product. This means that a
number of calculations must be carried out both for the determination of the MRL in
a derived product (for example, sunflower oil, maize gluten meal) and for the de-
termination in compound products (compound feeds, supplementary feeds).
The correct standard can be determined using the enclosed questionnaires. The
basic principle of the questionnaires is that there is a known pesticide and that the
associated residue standard must be found for a particular feed.
The questionnaires have been drawn up so that you always are led to a result. The
following questionnaires are available. a. Questionnaire for basic products.
This questionnaire helps you determine the MRL for basic products. b. Questionnaire for by-products.
This questionnaire helps you determine the MRL for auxiliary products. c. Questionnaire for compound feeds.
This questionnaire helps you determine the MRL for compound feeds.
It is of great importance to note here that Regulation (EC) No. 396/2005 only ap-
plies to products of vegetable or animal origin! If this is not the case then any
standards in Directive 2002/32/EG still apply.

To make this chapter easier to read the questionnaire makes use of the definitions
in the following table.
Table 1: Definitions and questionnaires
Product group Definition Questionnaire
Basic product Simple, unprocessed product of vegetable or animal origin (wheat,
barley, linseed, sunflower seeds, soya bean, peas, shrimps)
4.2.2.
Auxiliary products Simple, treated/processed or derived product, originating from an
basic product. (flour, semolina pellets, potato press fibres, soya
flakes, linseed oil, peapod meal, fish meal)
4.2.3
Compound feed Compound product consisting of at least two components being basic
products, by-products and/or feed additives. (complete feed, supple-
mentary feed, petfood, grain mixes, premixes)
4.2.4.
NOTE: These definitions have only been drawn up to improve the readability of
Chapter 4 and have no value or legitimacy outside this chapter.
The questionnaires help you to determine the standard. You are not always imme-
diately led to a number or value. It could be that you are referred to another point in
a table or to another table. It may also be possible that you have to carry out a few
calculations.
For a limited number of products (table 2) the MRL in Regulation (EC) No.
396/2005 may not (yet) apply for parts of these products are given the exclusive
destination animal feed. For these products the MRLs for pesticides therefore still
apply as specified in the Directive 2002/32/EG.
Table 2: Product (groups) of which parts with the exclusive destination animal feed are not (yet) covered under

* : The standards of Reg. 396/2005 apply neither to feeds nor to foodstuffs for (parts of) products in these groups.
For all other products of vegetable or animal origin, Regulation (EC) No. 396/2005
applies.

completed
4.2.3 Questionnaire for by-products
1. Is your by-product from a product / product group in table 2 and does it have
the exclusive destination animal feed? Yes This new regulation does not yet apply to your basic product.
Check if Directive 2002/32/EG contains a standard for your basic product / pesticide combination (end).
No Go to question 2.
2. Is your by-product included in Appendix I of Reg. 396/2005, either as a by-
product (column 2 in combination with 3, 4 or 5) or as a group of products
(column 2) or in the form of the original product? Yes Go to question 3.
No Your by-product is probably not a product of vegetable or animal
origin. Check your product using the definitions in Table 1. Consult
your supplier.
3. Is your by-product from that part of the (derived) product or the product
group for which the MRL applies (Reg. 396/2005, Appendix I, column 6)? Yes The standards in this regulation apply to your by-product. Go to
question 4. No This new regulation does not yet apply to your by-product. Check if
Directive 2002/32/EG contains a standard for your by-
product/pesticide combination (end).
You have established that the standards from this regulation apply to your
by-product. You then use the questionnaire for basic products (4.2.2.) ques-
tion 3 and further, to determine the standard for your individually-specified
by-product, the original product or the relevant product group. Now proceed
with question 4 in this questionnaire.
4. Is the by-product for which the standard is established equal to the by-
product for which you are looking for a standard? Yes The standard you have found is the standard for this by-product /
pesticide combination. (end)
No Go to question 5.
5. In Reg. 396/2005, Appendix VI, is there a concentration or dilution factor
established for your by-product or for the treatment / processing which is the
basis for your by-product? Yes Use this factor to determine the final standard for this by-product /
pesticide combination. (end)
No Go to question 6.
Version: 30-10-2014 08:37Product Standards EN
© GMP+ International B.V.86 / 109
NOTE: At the time of the first publication of this document Appendix VI was not yet
completed
6. Is the treatment / processing for this by-product based on the separation of
a fat and water fraction? Yes Go to question 7.
No The processing / treatment has no effect on the residue level, the
standard which you have found is the final standard for this by-product/pesticide combination. (end)
Your by-product has been created as a result of the separation of a fat-oil fraction
and a fat-oil free fraction (pressing, extraction). In the rest of this questionnaire you
determine if there is an accumulation of residues in the fat fraction or in the fat-free
fraction
7. Does the name of the pesticide in Pesticiden Web have the suffix (F)? Yes The pesticide is soluble in fat. Determine, using the fat percentage
in the original product and in your by-product, the dilution or concen-
tration factor see website MVO:
http://www.mvo.nl/voedselveiligheid/codes/MVO-reporting-
requirements-on-pesticides) and divide or multiply this by the stand-
ard found for the original product(group) in order to determine the fi-nal standard.(end)
No Go to question 8.
8. Search on International Chemical Safety Cards (ICSCs) for the pesticide in
question and note the “Octanol/water partition coefficient” (log Pow) which
you will find in the chapter “Physical properties”. The log Pow is a measure
of the solubility in water or fat of the pesticide. Is the log Pow greater than
4?
Yes The pesticide is soluble in fat. Determine, using the fat percentage in
the original product and in your by-product, the dilution or concentra-
tion factor and divide or multiply this by the standard found for the
original product(group) in order to determine the final standard(end)
No Go to question 9.
9. Is the log Pow between 3 and 4? Yes The pesticide is not specifically soluble in water or fat. There is no
Dilution or concentration of the pesticide residue as a Result of the
treatment to which the original product was subjected. The standard
which you found in the Pesticides Web also applies to your by-product. (end)
No Go to question 10.
10. The log Pow is less than 3. The pesticide is soluble in water. Use the fat
percentage in the original product and your by-product to determine the dilu-
tion or concentration factor and divide or multiply this by the standard you
found for the original product or product group in order to determine the final
standard.(end). Note: In this case, where there is a pesticide which is solu-
ble in water, there is dilution of the fat fraction and concentration of the fat-
free fraction!

NOTE: the method described in this section for the determination of maximum resi-
due limits (MRL) in fats and oils also applies to fatty acids.
4.2.4 Questionnaire for compound feeds
1. Specify the individual components of your compound feed. In Reg.
396/2005, Appendix VI, has a concentration or dilution factor has been es-
tablished for
your compound feed, A certain fraction of your compound feed. A by-
product that is part of your compound feed?
Yes Use this factor or factors to determine the final standard for this spe-
cific part of your compound feed and to determine the pesticide in
question. Go to question 2 .
No Go to question 2.
NOTE: At the time of the first publication of this document Appendix VI was not yet
completed
2. Does your compound feed contain basic products among other things?
Yes For each of these components go through the questionnaire in par.
4.2.2. In order to determine the standards for these components. Go
to question 3
No Go to question 3.
3. Your compound feed contains (among other things) by-products. For each
of these components go through the questionnaire in par. 4.2.3. In order to
determine the standards for these components. Go to question 4.
4. Have you determined a standard for all the components for which a stand-
ard has been set and have you taken account of the factors laid down in
question 1?
Yes Go to question 5.
No Go through this questionnaire again starting at question 1
5. Now determine the MRL for the specific pesticide in the compound feed in
the following way
MRLx = {(NxC1 * C1) + (NxC2 * C2) …. + (NxCn * Cn)}/ ΣC1:Cn
Where: MRLx : Is the maximum residue standard for pesticide X in
the compound feed
NxCn : The standard found for the component / group of
components C (1 to n)
Cn : The percentage in the compound feed for compo-
nent / group of components C (1 to n)
ΣC1:Cn: The sum of the percentages of components for which
an MRL for pesticide X actually applies
4.2.5 Fumigators
It is permitted to trade feeds which at the moment of sale exceed an MRL for a pes-
ticide specified in Appendix II or III of Reg. 396/2005. This relates to an excess as a

result of treatment of feeds with gaseous pesticides (gas generation, fumigation)
after harvesting. The pesticides for which this permission applies and also the
products involved are specified in Appendix VII of Reg. 396/2005.
4.3 Special requirements
In addition to the standards for undesirable substances which have a broad validity
within the feed chain, some specific measures are announced with some regularity
for precisely-defined products or product groups. These are often temporary
measures as a result of very specific contamination. The following measures are
currently in force.

The participant must ensure that a. the correct additives and veterinary medical products get into the right feed in the
right dosage (GMP+ B1, section 6.7.1.2). b. (residues of) additives and veterinary medical products are not present or are
under set maximum limits (the so-called residue standards) in feeds in which they should not be present (GMP+ B1, section 6.7.1.5).
In order to be able to control the residue levels the participant should, among other
things, measure carry-over in the installations (see GMP+ BA4) and establish
production sequences. In chapter 2 of part B of this appendix there are further
instructions for this.
Chapter 3 of part B of this appendix states the maximum residue standards for
coccidiostats, histomonostats and critical veterinary medical products. These
standards apply to compound feeds, semi-manufactured products, feed materials
and premixtures and are applicable to producers of these products.

2.2 Compound feed
2.2.1 Installation Carry-over level:
The installation’s own carry-over is the carry-over measured using an inspection
procedure as laid down in GMP+BA4 Minimum Requirements for Sampling and
Analysis.
The frequency at which the carry-over must be measured is determined as follows: a. If the participant processes or transports (animal feed containing) feed addi-
tives for which a residue standard has been determined in the table in Chapter 3 or veterinary medical products then the degree of carry-over must be known for the lines on which these products are processed.
b. If the participant has relevant 1 lines then he must measure carry-over at least once per two years.
c. The minimum frequency for the measurement of carry-over may be lowered to once per four year on condition that: 1. the carry over measured is less than 10% and 2. as soon as the last measurement is over two years old, the participant
must assume the degree of carry over of the line in question is 15%.
The carry-over must be re-established in the event of major changes to the installa-
tion.
2.2.2. The coefficient
The coefficient is intended to take account of an extra carry-over in addition to the
installation carry-over, as a consequence of the processing properties of the addi-
tive or veterinary medicine. A factor of 1 means that the product contains no pro-
cessing properties other than those of a standard measurement substance. The
actual carry-over of the product therefore corresponds to the installation carry-over.
If the factor is greater than 1, this means that the product has anomalous pro-
cessing properties, such that the actual carry-over will be higher than the installa-
tion carry-over.
The coefficient is determined on the basis of a so-called relative wall adhesion fac-
tor using a method specially developed for this purpose. Refer to TNO report I-96-
31006 Carry-over of a number of critical substances in cattle feed and the relation-
ship to their characteristic properties.
1 Relevant lines are lines on which (products with) feed additives for which a residue norm has been
determined in the table in Chapter 3 or veterinary medical products and also products with a de-termined residue norm are produced and/or transported.

shown in the following table.

established method.

unknown, > 3 3
2.2.3. Carry-over and flush batches
The actual carry-over of additives and carry-over or veterinary medical products
must be calculated in order to establish the number of flushes. This carry-over can
be calculated by multiplying the installation carry-over by the coefficient.
This coefficient can be used to calculate how many flush batches are minimally
required to remain under the established residue standards. A sample calculation
follows.
Example: Broiler feed with nicarbazine : 80 ppm
Company’s own carry-over in installation: : 5 %
Coefficient : "1"
Maximum residue standard for broiler feed
for the last five days: : 0.5 ppm
Calculation of actual carry-over = company’s own carry-over x coefficient
= 0.05 (5%) x 1 = 0.05
Calculation: calculated level of nicarbazine
- batch a broiler feed 80 ppm
- batch a+1 follow-on feed 4 ppm (= 0.05 x 80)
- batch a+2 follow-on feed 0.2 ppm (= 0.05 x 4)
The second batch complies with the residue standard for broiler feed in the final fattening
phase. Therefore a first flush batch must be produced with a non-critical feed.
2.2.4 Items for attention and other remarks
The supplementary instructions for use relate to the sequence of production opera-
tions in the installation. It is also necessary for the participant to establish company
requirements and procedures in order to comply with the residue standards for: a. transport (sequence) and storage (sequence) b. intake of premixes, additives and veterinary medical products.
The participant must check that the prescribed residue standards are not exceed-
ed. If an infringement of these residue standards is detected, the instructions for
use and procedures must be modified.
The coefficients and the minimum carry-over levels calculated from them may be
deviated from provided that the carry-over is measured using the relevant product
itself.

2.3 Premix
2.3.1 General
The objective of these supplementary instructions is that compound feed producers
must be able to use premixes from GMP+-certified manufacturers in producing
compound feeds, without exceeding the maximum carry-over levels.
Carry-over of critical additives and veterinary medicines also occurs in the prepara-
tion of premixes. In order to prevent GMP+-certified compound feed mixers from
exceeding the standards for coccidiostats, histomonostats and critical veterinary
medical products because of excessive levels in premixes, a general rule of thumb
is that no more than 50% of the residue standard as stated for compound feed may
be used up as a result of the premixes used.
The maximum level in the premix must be derived from the dosage of the premix in
the compound feed. Carry-over of coccidiostats, histomonostats and critical veteri-
nary medical products may take place via direct and indirect contamination.
2.3.2 Direct contamination
Direct contamination is possible through use of a premix destined for an animal
feed for which a maximum residual level has been established. The premix produc-
er is to ensure through his GMP+ feed safety system that no more than 50% of the
residue standard as stated for that compound feed is used up via the premix.
For any flush batches required, the relevant coefficient as established for that prod-
uct should be adopted.
2.3.3 Indirect contamination
In order to achieve extremely low residue standards in premixes, producers of pre-
mixes will have to first produce a number of batches for a non-critical use following
the production of premixes with coccidiostats, histomonostats and critical veterinary
medicines. A premix which is produced subsequent to one prepared with a coccidi-
ostats or histomonostats (a so-called flush batch) may still contain such high levels
of coccidiostats or histomonostats that this can cause problems for the compound
feed producer.
Compound feed manufacturers use these premixes mainly in animal feeds which
are also used to flush an installation clean. In certain cases the level of critical addi-
tives is so high that, together with the company’s own carry-over levels, the residue
standards in compound feeds are exceeded.
