Land O’Lakes Further Expands Purina Feed, Mazuri and Lab Diet Recalls

Land O’Lakes and its subsidiary PMI Nutrition International issued a fourth recall of products manufactured at Land O’Lakes’ Richmond, Ind.-based plant due to the potential for elevated vitamin D levels, the companies reported Friday.

Earlier this month, PMI Nutrition recalled four lots of feed (to read about this recall, click here), after receiving customer complaints of animal illness and death. A few days later, PMI expanded the recall (to read about the recall expansion, click here) to include three additional lots of feed, and about a week after that, PMI further expanded the recall to include several lots of Aquamax feed and dozens of additional lots of LabDiet and Mazuri feed.

On the same day, Land O’Lakes Purina Feed recalled several lots of feed manufactured at the same Richmond plant where the PMI products were manufactured and Feed Solutions, a DBA of Land O’Lakes, also recalled several lots manufactured in Richmond that were distributed to Tractor Supply and Del’s Feed & Farm Supply stores.
