§ 14938 Custom Feed Specifications

Food and Agricultural Code·California

AI SummaryVerified

This law defines what counts as a "special mix" of commercial animal feed—it's any feed made according to rules that both the buyer and the maker agree on.

Key Takeaways

•A "special mix" is commercial feed made under a shared agreement between buyer and manufacturer.
•The agreement can cover how the feed is manufactured, processed, or mixed.
•If the specifications are not agreed upon, the feed does not meet this definition.

Example

A farmer buys a batch of chicken feed from a feed mill that was prepared using a recipe both the farmer and the mill agreed to.

Because the feed was produced following a mutually agreed specification, it qualifies as a "special mix" under the statute.
