The purpose of this web page is to provide feed mills that are Cleanfarms/AgriRÉCUP members (scroll down for a complete listing) with tools to help explain new obligations to customers and business partners. This page also provides additional tools to help organize and document reporting responsibilities.
These tools have been developed in partnership with AQINAC, through its RRVPE subcommittee. AQINAC has been a valuable partner and resource throughout the planning phases of this program’s launch.
These tools are meant to serve as a starting point that will allow feed mills to create their own tools and facilitate discussion with customers and other obligated parties.
