Abstract

Today in the Russian Federation there is no legislative definition of the term “feed additive” for productive animals. There are several different documents where this concept is deciphered. The classification of feed additives is prescribed in EU regulation No. 1831/2003. It is necessary at the state level to define terminology and develop a new classification taking into account non-traditional feed additives used in our country for feeding productive animals.

Keywords
