Federacion de Asociaciones Pecuarias de P.R. Inc.: Animal Feed Products Recalled for Pirimiphos-Methyl Contamination

Agency Publication Date: July 19, 2003

Summary

Federacion de Asociaciones Pecuarias de P.R. Inc. has recalled approximately 3,594,351 pounds of various animal feed products, including dairy cattle, bovine, horse, swine, poultry, and rabbit feeds. These products were distributed to farmers and retail stores throughout Puerto Rico. The recall was initiated after laboratory analysis revealed the presence of pirimiphos-methyl, a pesticide, in products manufactured using wheat middlings.

Risk

The feeds contain pirimiphos-methyl, a chemical pesticide that is not approved for use in these specific animal feeds. Consuming contaminated feed may pose a health risk to livestock and other animals, potentially affecting the safety of food products derived from these animals.

What You Should Do

Immediately identify if you have any of the affected feed products by checking the product names and internal codes (such as 203420, 963020, or 250222) printed on the 50 lb or 100 lb bags or bulk delivery documents.
Stop using the affected feed for your livestock, horses, poultry, or rabbits immediately.
Check your inventory for specific varieties such as 20% Dairy Supreme (203420), 14% AL Galope Horse Feed (300022), 18% Swine Grower (238922), or 17% Rabbit Pellets (250222).
Return any unused product to the farmer's store or the place of purchase in Puerto Rico for a full refund.
If your animals have consumed this feed and are showing signs of illness, contact your veterinarian immediately.
