Scope
GB 13078-2017 is the English-translated version of 饲料卫生标准.
China's mandatory hygienic standard for feeds. It is the document that decides what may be present in animal feed and at what level, and its reach extends past the animal: almost everything it limits is limited because it passes into meat, milk and eggs.
The controls fall into groups. Mycotoxins are the largest problem in practice - aflatoxin, deoxynivalenol, zearalenone and fumonisin, produced by moulds on grain in the field and in storage, and aflatoxin in particular carries through into milk.
Heavy metals accumulate: lead, cadmium, arsenic and mercury. Then the residues of pesticides, the veterinary drugs that must not be fed, and the microbiological limits.
The standard sets the maximum levels for each in the feed materials and the compound feeds, and it is the reference against which every feed consignment in China is tested.
