## Details

- Record Type: WARNING_LETTER
- Company Name: Vorsteveld Farm, LLP
- Inspection Date: 2011-03-23
- Product Type: Drugs
- Office Name: Department of Health and Human Services
- Summary: On February 1, 2, and March 23, 2011, the FDA investigated Vorsteveld Farm, LLP's dairy operation in Panton, Vermont. The investigation revealed violations of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act) related to adulterated animals sold for slaughter and insanitary conditions.

Specifically, five calves sold for slaughter between August and September 2010 contained illegal residues of neomycin in kidney tissue, exceeding the 7.2 ppm tolerance for cattle, with levels ranging from 9.56 ppm to 13.63 ppm. This tolerance does not apply to veal calves, for which there is no acceptable residue level. The FDA cited this as adulteration under section 402(a)(2)(C)(ii) of the FD&C Act.

The farm also failed to maintain treatment records, leading to animals with potentially harmful drug residues entering the food supply, constituting adulteration under section 402(a)(4). Furthermore, the farm administered Penicillin G Procaine Injectable Suspension U.S.P. to dairy cows extralabel without veterinary supervision, violating 21 C.F.R. § 530.11(a) and rendering the drug unsafe and adulterated. The medicated feed (b)(4), containing neomycin sulfate and oxytetracycline hydrochloride, was also used extralabel, not conforming to
