Stepping stones and next steps: The first year of the Animal & Veterinary Innovation Agenda
Perspectives from CVM
In September 2023, the FDA unveiled our Animal and Veterinary Innovation Agenda to define our commitment to advancing human and animal health by supporting innovative products and approaches to real-world problems, prioritizing critical needs, streamlining and clarifying regulatory processes, and preparing the agency’s Center for Veterinary Medicine for the future. The Agenda describes some of the actions that we’re taking or proposing to take to help deliver the products that veterinarians, pet owners and animal producers need and to advance public health and sustainable food systems.
Since last fall, we’ve been busy initiating and continuing work on many of the key items described in the Agenda. I’m thrilled to share the progress we’ve made so far – and you can expect to see additional updates as we continue to evolve.

FDA Releases Two Draft Guidances, Seeks Public Comment on Pre-market Animal Food Ingredient Review Programs
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration today released a set of documents regarding the transition phase after the FDA’s longstanding Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Association of American Feed Control Officials (AAFCO) expires on October 1, 2024.
To be legally marketed, an ingredient used in animal food (including pet food) must be the subject of an FDA-approved animal food additive petition (FAP) or be generally recognized as safe (GRAS) for the intended use in animal food. Under the MOU, the FDA has been providing scientific and technical assistance to AAFCO as they decide whether to include ingredients in the AAFCO Official Publication.
Although the MOU is expiring, AAFCO remains an important partner to the FDA. The FDA will continue to work closely with AAFCO and state regulatory partners to help ensure the safety of the animal food supply.
