Through their work, the ICCF members aim to facilitate the approval or authorization of feed ingredients across jurisdictions to support the feed and food chain as it works to safely and sustainably meet the global growing demand for animal protein.
ICCF produces technical guidance documents that:
- Enable convergence of the risk assessment requirements for the approval or authorization of feed ingredients across different jurisdictions
- May facilitate the recognition of the outcome of risk assessments between different jurisdictions
- Are available for reference and use by other jurisdictions around the globe
- Help feed businesses develop risk assessments for the feed ingredients they manufacture
