United States Standards for Livestock
and Meat Marketing Claims, Naturally
Raised Claim for Livestock and the
Meat and Meat Products Derived From
Such Livestock
Agricultural Marketing Service,
USDA.
ACTION: Notice and Request for
Comments.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: The Agricultural Marketing
Service (AMS) is seeking comments on
a proposed voluntary standard for a
naturally raised marketing claim. A
number of livestock producers make
claims associated with production
practices in order to distinguish their
products in the marketplace. There are
a growing number of entities that wish
to capture value added opportunities via
alternative production methods to meet
the demands of consumers seeking meat
and meat products from naturally raised
livestock. The livestock and meat
supply chain along with consumers
could benefit from a uniform standard
for the marketing of this type of product.
The standard for a naturally raised
marketing claim, if adopted, will be part
of the voluntary U.S. Standards for
Livestock and Meat Marketing Claims. If
this voluntary standard is established,
livestock producers participating in this
program would have their naturally
raised claim verified through the
Department of Agriculture (USDA).
Verification of any claim would be
accomplished through an audit of the
production process in accordance with
procedures that are contained in Part 62
of Title 7 of the Code of Federal
Regulations (7 CFR part 62). Meat and
meat products sold from approved
programs can carry a claim verified by
USDA.
DATES: Comments must be received on
or before January 28, 2008 to be assured
of consideration.
ADDRESSES: Interested persons are
invited to submit written comments
concerning this proposal. Comments
should be submitted through the Web
site at https://www.regulations.gov. Send
written comments to: Naturally Raised
Marketing Claim, Room 2607–S, AMS,
