This Micor case applies to products being exported under the Import Health Standard: Processed Animal Feed of Plant Origin section 7.5. Refer to the import permit to confirm section 7.5 is referenced.
Product may be imported in either clean, new bags or loose in bulk.
The import requirements in this restriction apply to the following:
Import permit: Required
The import requirements in this restriction apply to the following:
- Plant based multiple ingredient stock feeds and additives may contain either ground or hammer-milled grains and plant products that have been produced by the whole mixture passing through a high heat extrusion, expanding or pelleting process incorporating steam and pressure.
- The feeds may be a loose mix of grains and other plant material in the form of blended mash, or muesli style in which the individual ingredients or the ingredients together have been cooked or heated (e.g. roasted, micronised, steamed and rolled or irradiated).
- The feeds may contain finely chopped hay or roughage included before the heating process.
- Cubed products containing predominantly hay or only hay will be assessed on application to ensure that the total processing method(s) will devitalise seeds. High temperature and pressure is usually required. Specific conditions will be listed on the permit
- Plant based feeds may contain animal ingredients (e.g. dairy products, fish meal) in accordance with the relevant animal standards, which will be stipulated on the permit.
Import permit: Required
Phytosanitary certificate: Required
Manufacturer's certificate: Required - see the MPI Standard for specific details that the exporter must comply with.

Explanation of the endorsements
The import permit and MPI Standard will state the required additional declaration for the consignment which may include one or more of the following:

For product shipped bulk in ships' holds or in containers:
- been inspected after processing in accordance with appropriate official procedures, and found free from contamination by any unprocessed plant material, vermin, birds, faecal material and other animal products and visually detectable regulated pests.
AND
- been stored in substantially bird-proof buildings or bird-proof storage houses, and transported to the exit port prior to loading, in a manner to prevent contamination with any unprocessed plant material, vermin, birds, ruminant animals, faecal material and other animal products.
OR
For product shipped in bags:
- been bagged in clean new bags immediately after processing and the bags stored in a manner to prevent infestation and contamination.

Fumigation treatment:
All loose, bulk stock feed consignments and all meal products (except for those bagged products listed below) must be fumigated prior to or during shipment to ensure that subsequent infestation from holds, containers or other chance pest presence does not occur.
Fumigation must be with phosphine or methyl bromide at the following prescribed rates. The fumigation certificate must state the fumigant used and the rate used. Fumigation given prior to shipment must be carried out no more than 21 days prior to shipment.
Phosphine: (prior to shipment or in transit):
Fumigation can be carried out prior to shipment or may be carried out with phosphine generating products e.g. tablets, pellets, sachets or blankets introduced with the product into the sealed container or ships' hold to be effective during the journey (the ships' master must be notified).
The table below gives the rates to be used when using phosphine generating products. Three days must be added if the fumigant is surface applied in trays. One day less may be subtracted for cylinderised phosphine gas application completed prior to shipment. The fumigation certificate must state the method of application and clearly state whether the consignment was exposed to the fumigant before the voyage with the fumigant removed, or whether the application was with tablets, pellets, sachets or blankets introduced with the product into the sealed container or ships' hold to remain there for the journey.
Phosphine application is based on the internal volume of the enclosure.
If treatment is undertaken onshore the Exporter is to provide evidence attesting to the treatment and present to the Authorised Officer at the time of inspection.
