FEED
At any given time, Kansas has more cattle than people. And, our state has a reputation of providing safe, wholesome beef products. ACAP inspectors maintain the integrity of Kansas beef by inspecting facilities that contribute to the production of cattle feed to ensure that they produce feed that is safe and in compliance with state and federal rules.
During feed mill inspections, we pay extra attention to materials that include bovine (cow) protein. In Europe, bovine protein has been identified as the vehicle responsible for spreading bovine spongiform encephalopathy, or mad cow disease, a disease that has not been found in the United States.
