Agricultural Industries Confederation. The AIC is an independent, not for profit organisation that works on behalf of its members in the agricultural supply sector. While AIC represents several sectors within the feed industry and manage a number of assurance schemes, this MOU relates to the following schemes: • Universal Feed Assurance Scheme (UFAS) • Feed Materials Assurance Scheme (FEMAS) • Trade Assurance Scheme for Combinable Crops (TASCC) UFAS was launched in 1998 and accounts for well in excess of 95% of the commercially produced compound feed in the UK and Ireland. The scheme has been amended to include a Merchants’ Standard. In total UFAS have in excess of 700 participants in the UK. FEMAS covers all feed ingredients intended for direct feeding to animals or for inclusion in compound feeds and blends. FEMAS participants are an extremely diverse group of businesses ranging from specialist additive manufacturers to food processors and brewers. TASCC covers the trading of combinable crops, storage and transportation of feed materials and ingredients. Schemes are based on HACCP principles, which form the bedrock of EU Food and Feed legislation. Each scheme is audited and certified by a single independent certification body, in accordance with the internationally recognised standard ISO17065. This means that the certification body is itself independently assessed every year to ensure that the standard is implemented and administered consistently and fairly. AIC require businesses to be audited before certification is granted and participants are subject to an annual audit. AIC has worked with the FSA, VMD and FSS to ensure standards within the schemes reflect legislative requirements for both feed and medicated feed hygiene.
