Feed additives are subject to constant revisions, new authorizations, modifications, withdrawals, and so on, which generate numerous doubts and complications within the sector. In this new CESFAC webinar, the objective is to gain a more detailed understanding of the group of botanical organoleptic additives. Under the title Updates on Botanical Organoleptic Additives, we will clarify doubts about the latest published regulations, ongoing approval dossiers, as well as the renewal of authorizations (chemically defined substances) and the implications for labeling these botanical additives in feed and premixes. The session will take place on December 9th in Madrid, at the European Commission Representation in Spain headquarters (Paseo de la Castellana, 46, E-28046 Madrid / Spain), with the option to connect online as well.
