The on-farm feed distribution system should ensure that the correct feed is sent to the right specie and group of animals. During distribution and feeding, feed should be handled so that biological and chemical contamination does not occur from contaminated storage areas and equipment. Non-medicated feeds should be handled separately from medicated feeds to prevent contamination.
Avoid overfilling the animals' feeding troughs, adapting the quantity to the physiological requirements. Feed and feed ingredients should not be produced, processed, stored, transported, or distributed in facilities or using equipment where incompatible operations may affect their safety and lead to adverse effects on animal health.
