Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Mercer Milling Co. Inc. has recalled 42 bags of CCF LEWIS MARTIN O LACT MIN, a vitamin and mineral premix for lactating dairy cattle, because it contains selenium levels above 1,900 ppm. This custom feed was distributed in 50-pound bags (22.67 kg) in New York. The recall was initiated because the high concentration of selenium can cause toxicity in cattle, leading to serious health issues. Consumers should return any unused portion of the affected lot to the place of purchase for a full refund.

Risk

The cattle feed contains selenium levels significantly exceeding safety standards, which can lead to selenium poisoning (selenosis) in dairy cattle, potentially causing hair loss, hoof deformities, and organ damage.
