STATEMENT OF WORK – ABBL Animal Feed
Requirement Description:
USDA-ARS requires feed to be made for poultry being housed at the Beltsville Agricultural Research Center (BARC). Poultry species include chickens and turkeys ranging in age from newly hatched to adult birds. We require preparation of custom diets that match the formulations provided. Vendor must consult with and receive approval from the USDA-ARS POC prior to adding, substituting, or removing any ingredients from the provided formulation, including altering percentages/amounts of ingredients. If unavailable from the vendor, vitamin and trace mineral premixes may be provided by USDA-ARS. Diets may not include any antibiotic, pre-biotic, probiotic or antibiotic alternative ingredients, as this would interfere with research objectives. Diets will be prepared as mash, crumble/short pellet, or regular pellet depending on the age of the bird or the research project design. Diets may be required as bagged or in bulk. All diets will be delivered to BARC.
Scope:
