Vermont § 327 - Adulteration

§ 327. Adulteration

• (a) A commercial feed including whole seeds shall be deemed to be adulterated if it bears
  or contains any poisonous or deleterious substance that may render it injurious to
  human or animal health, but in case the substance is not an added substance, the commercial
  feed shall not be considered adulterated under this subsection if the quantity of
  the substance in the commercial feed does not ordinarily render it injurious to health. (b) Any other commercial feed, feed supplement, or dosage form animal health product shall
  be deemed to be adulterated if: (1) any valuable constituent has been in whole or in part omitted or abstracted from the
  commercial feed, feed supplement, or dosage form animal health product or any less
  valuable substance substituted for a more valuable constituent; (2) its composition or quality falls below or differs from that which it is purported
  or is represented to possess by its labeling; (3) use of the product may result in contamination of a raw agricultural product; (4) it contains a drug and the methods used in or the facilities or controls used for
  its manufacture, processing, or packaging do not conform to current good manufacturing
  practice and rules adopted by the Secretary to ensure that the drug meets the requirement
  of this chapter as to safety and has the identity and strength and meets the quality
  and purity characteristics that it purports or is represented to possess; or (5) it contains viable weed seeds in amounts exceeding the limits that the Secretary shall
  establish by rule. (Added 1985, No. 126 (Adj. Sess.), § 2; amended 2003, No. 42, § 2, eff. May 27, 2003; 2021, No. 41, § 9; 2021, No. 105 (Adj. Sess.), § 56, eff. July 1, 2022.)
