What is this? A small amount of a new kind of xylanase enzyme was found in animal feed. It was made using genes from a genetically modified organism.
What's happening? The enzyme is not allowed in the EU yet. It was found in feed made in Finland and sold in Belgium and the Netherlands.
Does this affect me? If you bought animal feed in Belgium or the Netherlands, check the bag for this enzyme.
What should I do? Stop using the feed and ask your vet or a feed expert what to use instead.
