The 카지노 룰렛 게임 Trade Association (OTA) applauds the U.S. Department of Agriculture (ISDA) National 카지노 룰렛 게임 Program (NOP) for finalizing the Market Development for Mushrooms and Pet Food rule. OTA supports the development of market opportunities for 카지노 룰렛 게임 producers, and this final rule aligns directly with our mission to grow the industry. This final rule addresses the unique aspects of mushroom and pet food with the introduction of specific standards and resolves uncertainty and inconsistency in the certification of these product categories. 

While targeted at expanding the mushroom and pet food categories, this rule also opens opportunities for ingredient suppliers to these categories. For example, with the clarification that 카지노 룰렛 게임 livestock off-cuts may now be included in a high-quality 카지노 룰렛 게임 pet food diet, 카지노 룰렛 게임 livestock producers are presented with a market opportunity and potential price premium.  

OTA has long advocated for clear practice standards to support consistency in production, a fair playing field in the marketplace, and a commonly understood definition of 카지노 룰렛 게임 by the consumer. Publication of this final rule draws on four National 카지노 룰렛 게임 Standards Board recommendations dating to 1995 and builds on OTA’s successful advocacy and engagement in moving these backlogged recommendations forward. Keeping USDA 카지노 룰렛 게임 regulations current and reflective of consumer expectations is essential to maintaining trust and value in the 카지노 룰렛 게임 label.

With a compliance date of February 2027, the industry has a two-year period to adjust and implement the requirements of this final rule. OTA will use this time to focus on providing the support and resources needed to its members to ensure successful compliance with this significant new rule.
