Course animal by-products in feed

The use of animal products in animal feeds is subject to strict legislation: whether it concerns former foodstuffs, meat and bone meal, fishmeal, or, for example, fish oil. All these products are governed by the European Regulation on animal by-products. If you wish to process animal proteins in feeds, the BSE regulation is also in effect.

The aim of the training is to independently navigate three complex EU regulations (Regulations No. 1069/2009, 142/2011, and 999/2001) and to understand the do’s and don’ts of animal products in animal feed.

Target Audience
This training is particularly intended for quality officers, purchasers, nutritionists from companies that produce animal by-products or process them in animal feeds. Basic knowledge of HACCP, GMP+, and animal feed raw materials is an advantage to successfully follow this course. If you do not have this basic knowledge, you can also first attend our Basic Knowledge of Animal Feed Legislation Course. Level: bachelor level (HBO) / upper secondary education levels (MBO).
