More DescriptionIntensive animal husbandry is often associated with an increasing use of substances for preventive health care, agents to control storage pests, preservatives, drugs, purification agents, disinfectants, agents which improve feed conversion as well as other organic and inorganic substances. It was the task of the ad hoc group "For the Evaluation of Potentially Harmful Organisms and Substances in Feedstuffs and Animal Faeces" to investigate the importance of these harmful substances and their negative consequences on the human food chain, animal health and on the environment. The purpose of this status report is to provide information as to what measures need to be taken to reduce and to avoid the risks from potentially harmful organisms and substances in feedstuffs and animal faeces. Each section ends with a summary and proposal of further research and a list of the most relevant literature.
