GMP and HACCP in feed production and sourcing

Kurz gefasst

Good manufacturing practice provides the operating conditions under which safe feed can be made, and HACCP identifies the specific hazards and control points within that environment; both are required, and neither substitutes for the other.

Kernpunkte

  • GMP is the baseline environment; HACCP is the hazard-specific control layer.
  • Critical control points require monitoring, limits and corrective action.
  • Records are what make either system demonstrable.

How the two relate

Prerequisite programmes — hygiene, maintenance, pest control, personnel practice, supplier control — create conditions where hazards are manageable. HACCP then identifies remaining significant hazards and defines the points where they are controlled.

What a buyer should look for

A documented hazard analysis specific to the products made, defined critical control points with limits and monitoring frequency, corrective-action records, verification activity and evidence of periodic review after process changes.

Zu prüfen

  • Hazard analysis specific to the products supplied to you
  • Monitoring and corrective-action records for each control point
  • Evidence of review after process or formulation change

Zu steuernde Risiken

  • Generic hazard analysis copied from a template
  • Control points defined but not monitored in practice
  • System documentation maintained only for audit purposes

Häufige Fehler

  • Reviewing the manual without reviewing the records
  • Treating prerequisite programmes as optional
  • Not re-reviewing the analysis after a process change

Häufige Fragen

Is HACCP mandatory for feed businesses?

In many jurisdictions feed operators are required to implement HACCP-based procedures. The specific legal requirement depends on the market and the activity.

What distinguishes a real system from a paper one?

Records. A functioning system generates monitoring data, deviations and corrective actions continuously; a paper system produces documents shortly before audits.
