Traceability

One step back, one step forward

Feed safety systems require each operator to identify its immediate supplier and immediate customer for every lot. Continuity of lot identity from producer to mill intake is the practical test of whether the chain works.

Traceability is also a sustainability instrument

Deforestation-related regulation, responsible-sourcing schemes and customer commitments increasingly require geographic origin evidence at farm or fishery level, not only at exporter level.
