Misbranding commercial feed prohibited; rules.
A person may not distribute
misbranded commercial feed. A commercial feed is misbranded:
(1) If its
labeling is false or misleading in any particular.
(2) If it is
distributed under the name of another feed.
(3) If it is not
labeled as required by ORS 633.026 and by rules adopted pursuant to ORS 633.006
to 633.089.
(4) If it
purports to be or is represented as a feed ingredient or as containing a feed
ingredient, unless that feed ingredient conforms to the definition of identity,
if any, prescribed by rule of the State Department of Agriculture. In adopting
rules under this subsection, the department may take into consideration the
commonly accepted definitions approved or authorized by:
(a) The United
States and other states.
(b) Other
recognized agencies or organizations experienced in such matters, such as the
Association of American Feed Control Officials.
(5) If any word,
statement or other information required by ORS 633.006 to 633.089 or by rule of
the department to appear on the label is not prominently placed thereon with
such conspicuousness, as compared with other words, statements, designs or
devices in the labeling, and in such terms as to render it likely to be read
and understood by the ordinary individual under customary conditions of
purchase and use. [1961 c.314 §6; 2001 c.137 §7; 2007 c.71 §193]
