An FDA inspection of Smithfield Foods, Lucernce Feed Mill in Lucerne, MO, revealed a significant issue regarding the firm's quality control practices. The facility failed to perform required periodic assays for medicated feeds, specifically lacking the third set of assay results for the 2025 calendar year. This indicates a lapse in ensuring the quality and safety of their manufactured medicated feed products.
