Webinar on feed safety and security (and ASF)
Leading up to the 2022 Global Feed Safety Summit, a series of webinars will focus on feed safety and security. The series will kick off on Wednesday, October 7th. Unsurprisingly, African Swine Fever virus also plays a role in the 1st webinar.
In order to be able to guarantee feed safety, the concept of Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) is essential. GMP+ International is an organisation deploying a certification scheme, making it easier for companies to contribute to safe feed. In the feed safety certification industry, the organisation has a global market share of 70%. GMP+ International has almost 20,000 members.
