FeedAssure®

ANAC is committed to upholding FeedAssure® as the highest feed safety standard in Canada. As part of our efforts to achieve this objective, ANAC takes an active role in auditor training to continuously improve audit consistency and quality. 

If you disagree with third-party audit finding, you can challenge the finding by contacting the ANAC office. Note that facilities must return the completed External Audit Complaint Form and supporting documentation within 14 days of the audit. 

The Pre-Audit Documentation (PAD) review is a new component of the audit process under FeedAssure® v.4 2022. The PAD review enables auditors to take a risk- and outcome-based approach to auditing. By reviewing a series of the facility’s key documents ahead of the onsite audit, auditors can better plan their audit to prioritize high-risk areas while onsite. 

Promptly addressing FeedAssure® non-conformances identified during internal or external audits is critical to minimizing the potential negative impacts they may have on feed safety. Learn how to close out audit non-conformances to maintain FeedAssure® certification.

March 1, 2023 marked the end of the 1-year transition period and official release of ANAC’s FeedAssure® v.4 (2022) program. Facilities excelled in adapting to the program changes, proactively addressing feed safety risks and demonstrating their strong commitment to providing safe feed for livestock.

We are excited to launch FeedAssure® Quarterly, a newsletter highlighting important FeedAssure® information and program updates in an easy-to-access format coming your way four times a year.

This year, ANAC is once again offering the popular FeedAssure® training courses. Registration is now open for both spring and fall offerings. Don’t miss your chance to sign up – once a course is full, registration will close and a waitlist will be created.
