Kentwood Co-op has recalled 40 tons of its Bulk Custom Dairy Feed Mix because it may contain ruminant-derived meat and bone meal. This ingredient is prohibited in feed for dairy cattle and other ruminants to prevent the spread of diseases. The affected feed was distributed in Louisiana and Mississippi between June 2006 and July 2006. If you have purchased this bulk feed, you should contact Kentwood Co-op immediately to discuss returning or replacing any remaining product.
The feed may contain prohibited mammalian proteins that pose a risk of spreading bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) if consumed by ruminant animals like cows. While no animal illnesses have been reported, federal regulations strictly prohibit feeding ruminant-derived proteins back to other ruminants to ensure food chain safety.
