Sažetak
In the recent years, the introduction of the food chain approach, which recognizes responsibility for the supply of safe food, has served to highlight the importance of safety feed on the very beginning of the chain. Development of improved practices in the feed production and development of sampling and analytical techniques are necessary for achieving proper fud safety standards. In the same time, development work on the application of the risk analysis framework has facilitated understanding of the potential impact of animal feed safety on public health. Therefore, consumers are increasingly aware of food safety problems which are linked with feed production. As animal feed is an important route by which hazards can enter the human chain, its safety must be properly assessed. The hazards can be biological, chemical and physical. Each of them is associated with particular sources and routes of contamination and exposure. The list of potential hazards is very large and constantly evolving. A multidisciplinary approach to risk assessment therefore is needed. In order to assess the risk, the first step that has to be done is risk identification, which means identification of any undesirable substances and micro-organisms which may be naturally present in feed or introduced during the production, distribution or transport. The main purpose of this paper is to present the results of official control of feed, point out main problems and shortcomings and give a few suggestions how to minimise them.
