Rips Farm Center: Bulk Custom Made Dairy Feed Recalled for Pro-Lak Ingredient Concern

Agency Publication Date: July 28, 2006

Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Rips Farm Center has recalled approximately 1,120 tons of bulk custom-made dairy feed. The recall was initiated because the feed contains an ingredient called Pro-Lak, which may contain ruminant-derived meat and bone meal. This custom-made feed was distributed to two specific consignees in Hillsboro and Maysville, Kentucky. Because no specific remedy was provided in the official notice, animal owners should contact the manufacturer or return the product for a refund.

Risk

The inclusion of ruminant-derived meat and bone meal in dairy cattle feed is prohibited as a preventative measure against the spread of bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE). Feed containing restricted ruminant protein poses a potential risk to animal health and safety regulations.

What You Should Do

  1. Identify if you have the affected Bulk Custom Made Dairy Feed by checking your purchase records for Recall #V-116-6.
  2. If you are one of the two consignees located at 267 Colliver Rd., Hillsboro, KY or 6253 KY Hwy. 11, Maysville, KY, stop using this feed immediately.
  3. Return any remaining bulk feed to Rips Farm Center or contact them directly at their Tollesboro, Kentucky location (PO Box 176, Lions Club Lane) for disposal or refund instructions.
  4. Contact your veterinarian if your animals have consumed this feed and you have concerns about their health.
  5. For additional questions, contact the FDA consumer complaint coordinator for your region or the FDA Center for Veterinary Medicine at 1-888-463-6332.
