Import Tips & Compliance

Label with crude protein and fiber content accurately to meet AAFCO nutritional standards for U.S. feed imports

Obtain phytosanitary certificate to ensure free from weeds, pests, and contaminants common in oilseed residues

Avoid common pitfall of misdeclaring as soybean meal, which has different tariff rates
