do manufacturers of Type B medicated feed have to use these two dry matter levels in their labeling?
No. The 50% and 60% dry matter levels listed on the monensin blue bird labels are only examples when formulating TMRs. The manufacturers of the Type B medicated feed can provide examples with different levels of dry matter that better reflect the situation in the particular region they serve. Alternative examples can be developed using the formula that appears in the footnote to the table on both sample Type B medicated feed blue bird labels. Component Feeding (including top dress) Q: The monensin approval in 21 CFR 558.311(f)(3)(xiv) states that the drug is to be used in a “component feeding system (including top dress)”; what is component feeding and what is top dress feeding? A: Component feeding is a feeding system in which animals receive feed in other ways than in a TMR (e.g., feeding forage and concentrate as separate components). Top dress is an example of component feeding where animals generally receive monensin in a small amount of feed added on top of the animals’ usual rat
