3.   Agriculture, Trade & Consumer Protection
(CR 97-86)
Ch. ATCP 42 - Commercial feed revisions.
Summary of Final Regulatory Flexibility Analysis:
1.   Type of businesses that will be affected by the proposed rule changes:
Affected businesses will be commercial feed manufacturers and distributors including persons acting as nutritional consultants who receive compensation for the preparation of commercial feed labels or formulas.
Commercial Feed Manufacturers and Distributors
There are currently 1000 commercial feed facilities in Wisconsin. Approximately 700 of these facilities engage in manufacturing commercial feed. The remainder are distribution points or labelers. A firm that identifies itself on the label as the party responsible for the feed and distributes a product that is manufactured by another is a a distributor. The, department estimates that about 70% of the manufacturing facilities also engage in other agri-business activities such as sales of fertilizer and pesticides. The department also estimates that about 70% of the manufacturing facilities are small businesses.
Feed Manufacturers Distribution of Labeled Feed Per Year
700 firms distribute from 0 and 2000 tons of commercial feed.
200 firms distribute from 2000 and 20,000 tons of commercial feed.
30 firms distribute more than 20,000 tons of commercial feed.
Feed Manufacturers - Category of Feed Produced
300 firms produce medicated animal feed.
400 firms only produce non-medicated animal feeds.
Poultry and Livestock Farm Operations
There are a number of small businesses in the poultry and livestock operator business that depend greatly on the feed manufacturing industry to provide correct and useful information on animal nutrition and the use of commercial feed products. The impact of the proposed rule amendment on these businesses will be to provide them with product labeling suitable for their production practices and expertise.
Commercial Feed Consultants
Commercial feed consultants that operate in Wisconsin provide farmers and manufactures with information related to the formulation and use of feed products. The number of consultants operating in Wisconsin is unknown at this time.
Many consultants are independent or work in cooperation with a feed manufacturer, but are not employed by a feed manufacturer. Other consultants are employees of the feed manufacturer and their employer must comply with all feed regulations. This includes: licensing, labeling and good manufacturing practices.
Through the current definition of ”distributor” consultants who are compensated by the final purchaser of the feed for providing a label or formula for a product will have to be licensed by the department and comply with the appropriate regulations. This proposed rule amendment will only affect the label formatting of ”mill-formulated feed” at the request of their customers.
