What is this? Rapeseed meal is a leftover from making oil. It can be fed to animals. Some batches have small amounts of two farm sprays in them.

What's happening? A batch from Romania was found to have these sprays. Experts are checking if it is safe.

Does this affect me? If you feed animals, check your rapeseed meal. If you bought meat or milk from farms that used this batch, it is being recalled.

What should I do? Stop using the meal. Ask your vet or doctor if you have questions.
