Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Farmers Coop Association has recalled approximately 12,017 pounds of PUR STARTER 2 NO PORCINE bulk pig feed because it contains Rumensin (monensin), a medication not intended for this product. The issue was discovered after pigs began refusing the feed, and subsequent laboratory testing confirmed the contamination. This custom starter feed was manufactured using Purina's Commercial Starter Base 1200 and was distributed in Nebraska. Because this is a bulk feed product, consumers should immediately check their delivery records for specific ticket numbers to ensure their livestock are not at risk.

Risk

The feed contains Rumensin, which is toxic to swine and can cause feed refusal, illness, or death if consumed. The pigs' refusal to eat the contaminated feed serves as a clinical sign of potential toxicity that can lead to severe health complications for the animals.

What You Should Do

  1. Identify if you have the affected PUR STARTER 2 NO PORCINE bulk pig feed by checking your delivery records for delivery ticket numbers 201199 and 201392.
  2. Stop using feed from these specific delivery tickets immediately to prevent animal illness or death.
  3. Contact Farmers Coop Association at their Lindsay, Nebraska office (101 S Pine St, Lindsay, NE 68644) to arrange for the return of the contaminated feed and to discuss replacement or refund options.
  4. Consult a veterinarian immediately if your pigs have consumed this feed or are showing signs of feed refusal or other abnormal behavior.
  5. Contact the FDA at 1-888-INFO-FDA (1-888-463-6332) for additional questions regarding this recall or to report any animal health incidents.
