FDA 483 - Brent L. Hershey dba Hershey Ag - March 08, 2023

An FDA inspection of Brent L. Hershey dba Hershey Ag, LLC in Marietta, PA, a non-licensed feed mill, revealed a significant deficiency in their hazard analysis program. The firm failed to establish a written hazard analysis to identify and evaluate known or foreseeable hazards for the animal food they manufacture, specifically regarding mycotoxin formation and growth in ingredients like corn and soybean meal. This indicates a lack of preventive controls to ensure the safety of their medicated and non-medicated animal feed.
