Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Farmers Ranchers Coop Assn has recalled Western Choice Pig Grow/Finish 95 PLT swine feed because it contains chlortetracycline, a medication not listed on the label. This 50 lb product was intended to be unmedicated feed but was found by the Nebraska Department of Agriculture to contain 57 g/ton of the antibiotic. The recall affects products sold to retail customers in Nebraska under Lot # 112217.

Risk

The feed contains unintended levels of chlortetracycline, an antibiotic medication. Consuming this unmedicated-labeled product could lead to unintended drug exposure in swine, which may impact animal health and food safety protocols for livestock producers.

What You Should Do

  1. Locate your 50 lb bags of Western Choice Pig Grow/Finish 95 PLT feed and check the packaging for Lot # 112217.
  2. Immediately stop using any feed that matches the affected lot number to prevent further unintended medication exposure to your livestock.
  3. Return any unused product to the place of purchase in Nebraska for a full refund or contact Farmers Ranchers Coop Assn directly for further instructions.
  4. Contact your veterinarian or animal health specialist if you have concerns about swine that have already consumed the contaminated feed.
  5. For additional questions or to report concerns, contact the FDA Center for Veterinary Medicine at 240-402-7002.
