Sampling

Sealed composite sample at loading + at discharge, split into three (buyer retain, seller retain, umpire lab). No sample = no complaint.

Third-party lab

Eurofins, SGS, Bureau Veritas or Intertek — pre-agreed in the contract. NIR at intake for real-time screening; wet chemistry for disputes and mycotoxins.

Mycotoxin control

Aflatoxin, DON, zearalenone, ochratoxin, fumonisin panel on every corn/wheat/DDGS cargo. Regional risk maps drive frequency for other ingredients.

Tolerance clauses

Price adjustment table for CP/moisture/energy deviations; rejection thresholds; free-fatty-acid and peroxide limits for oils; salmonella limit for animal proteins.

Complaint handling

Written notice within 7 days of discharge with sealed umpire sample; joint investigation; recovery via price adjustment or replacement — not chargeback.
