The ASC Feed Standard is generating a wave of positive change in feed production and continues to gather momentum. There has been strong uptake already, with Vimifos, Skretting and Thai Union each achieving certification for feed mill sites. There are now eight certified mills across Mexico, Chile, Ecuador and Thailand - all producing ASC compliant feed. With more feed companies currently in the audit process, the spread of more environmentally and socially responsible feed production continues to grow globally.
ASC certified farms have until October 2025 to switch to sourcing compliant feed produced under the ASC Feed Standard. Feed mills that get certified in 2024 will not have to pay licence fees on the volume of compliant feed they produce this calendar year.
