Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Western Feed LLC is recalling 260 bags of Payback Kountry Buffet 14% Text animal feed because it is contaminated with monensin, a medication that can be toxic to certain animals. The affected product is packaged in 50-lb. bags and was distributed to feed dealers in Nebraska and Wyoming. While the label indicates the product was manufactured by CHS Nutrition in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, it was specifically distributed by Western Feed LLC. Consumers should stop using the feed immediately and return it to the place of purchase for a full refund.

Risk

Monensin is a medication used in some livestock feed, but when it contaminates non-medicated feed or is present at incorrect levels, it can lead to severe illness or death in certain animal species, particularly horses and other sensitive livestock.

What You Should Do

  1. Check your inventory for 50-lb. bags of Payback Kountry Buffet 14% Text feed.
  2. Verify the lot numbers located on the packaging; the affected products are marked with Lot #M718430 or Lot #M720280.
  3. Ensure the label states the product is 'Manufactured by CHS Nutrition, Sioux Falls, SD' and was purchased from dealers in Nebraska or Wyoming.
  4. Immediately stop feeding any of the affected lots to your animals.
  5. Return any remaining bags of the recalled feed to the feed dealer or place of purchase for a full refund.
  6. If you have questions, contact Western Feed LLC at their Morrill, Nebraska location or reach out to the FDA consumer complaint coordinator.
