ADM to Build Feed Premix Plant in China
Archer Daniels Midland Company (NYSE: ADM) is building a new feed-premix plant in the city of Nanjing, in eastern China, bringing to three the total number of facilities in the company’s Chinese premix network.
The Nanjing plant, which is expected to be complete in the first half of 2015, will manufacture nutritional feed premixes that can be added to animal rations to promote good health and optimal growth. Such premix formulas typically contain various vitamins and minerals, amino acids such as lysine and threonine, and other ingredients. ADM will manufacture an estimated 30,000 metric tons of premix products per year at the Nanjing facility, which will also provide 80,000 metric tons of additional capacity for the production of complete feeds and concentrates. The plant is expected to employ about 150 people.
“ADM is committed to helping China meet its goals for food security and safety, and our plant in Nanjing is part of this commitment,” said Brent Fenton, president, ADM Animal Nutrition. “As the country’s population continues growing and personal incomes rise further, the nation’s demand for meat is expected to increase. In this environment, our decades of experience producing animal feeds and feed ingredients—coupled with our insistence on consistent, high-quality products—will serve China’s livestock producers well.”
The Nanjing facility complements ADM’s existing premix plants, which are located in Tianjin and Dalian in northern China. The company also has a tolling relationship with a third-party feed distribution facility in Chengdu, in the country’s southwest. Fenton says these facilities are the first in what ADM envisions as a national premix network.
ADM’s feed premix plants are part of a broader effort to help China further its food-security goals. The company is collaborating with China Agricultural University on a research program to develop efficient and lower-cost feed programs for dairy cattle using corn processing co-products such as distillers grains and locally grown corn stover—the stalks, cobs and leaves left on farmers’ fields after the harvest. Feeding cattle a mix of processed crop residues and co-products can free up grain for other uses and reduce the use of imported hay and other forages.

“Feed label” (GB 10648-2013) officially released the new standard
he State Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine and Standardization Administration of China issued a new overhaul of “feed label” (GB10648-2013), and will come into effect on July 1, 2014.
“Feed label" and “feed hygiene standards “are two important mandatory national standards in feed industry and play a crucial role in standardizing the production and operation order as well as improving product quality and safety standards. In line with the promulgation and implementation of “feed and feed additives regulations", the China Feed Industry Association and the National Feed Industry Standardization Committee promptly organized the revision of the “Feed label" standards.
The new overhaul of the “Feed label" added new definitions to feed, feed ingredients and feed additives; new regulations that prohibit the phrase “with the prevention or treatment of animal diseases” in the product label; makes product names adopt a common name as well as provide a generic name for various types of feed formulation and labels; necessitates feed additives, trace elements and vitamins premix pre- mixed feed to be marked with the recommended dosage and precautions; creates strict label rules about animal feed, processed products, customized products, imported products and the specific GMO requirements; forces Chinese labels to keep consistent to the date marked on original products; and stipulates that labels shall not be obscured; along with other regulations.
Successful implementation of a “feed label" standard is meant to not only promote the feed label standardization of effective measures, but also regulate the feed production and business activities, maintain market order, and protect the legitimate rights and interests of the production and operation of an important means of the user. This display of a more regulated standard of the “feed label” should have a strong significance in China’s feed industry.
