## Details

- Record Type: WARNING_LETTER
- Company Name: Crist Dairy Farm
- Inspection Date: 2013-06-24
- Product Type: Drugs

- Summary: On June 17 and 24, 2013, the FDA inspected Crist Dairy Farm in Homeworth, Ohio, and found violations of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. The farm offered for slaughter a bob veal calf on February 12, 2013, which USDA/FSIS analysis found to contain 1.74 ppm of desfuroylceftiofur in the kidney, exceeding the 0.4 ppm tolerance for cattle and having no acceptable level for veal calves. This rendered the food adulterated under 21 U.S.C. 342(a)(2)(C)(ii).

The farm also failed to maintain treatment records, indicating insanitary conditions where medicated animals with harmful drug residues could enter the food supply, adulterating food under 21 U.S.C. 342(a)(4). Furthermore, the drug Excenel (ceftiofur hydrochloride) was used extralabelly on the veal calf, which is prohibited for pre-ruminating calves by 21 C.F.R. 530.41(a)(13)(iii), resulting in an illegal residue and adulterating the drug under 21 U.S.C. 351(a)(5).

Additionally, the farm provided a false guaranty on March 8, 2006, stating livestock sold
