The South African Department of Agriculture is seeking industry input on the possible introduction of a new class in the Certain Raw Processed Meat Product Regulations for a “new” econo or value product consisting of raw minced meat or raw mixed-species minced meat combined with mechanically deboned meat (MDM), edible offal, spices, and water.
Industry stakeholders are invited to comment on the proposal by the deadline of 13 March 2026. Please contact us if you have any questions or would like to provide input before the deadline.
