🇬🇧 English

This regulation fixes a labelling mistake in the EU authorisation for L-arginine produced with Corynebacterium glutamicum KCCM 80387, a feed additive allowed for all animal species. The earlier rule wrongly said the recommended maximum content had to appear on both the additive label and the premixture label. The correction removes premixtures from that requirement. Feed additive makers still need to show the recommended maximum content on the additive label, but businesses handling premixtures do not need to add that same information just because of this provision.

Key Changes

  • Removes the word “premixture” from the labelling requirement in Implementing Regulation (EU) 2025/1787
  • Clarifies that the recommended maximum content must be shown on the feed additive label only
  • Reduces an unnecessary labelling obligation for premixtures containing the authorised L-arginine additive
