Section 76-19-8 - Misbranding.
76-19-8. Misbranding.
No person shall distribute misbranded feed. A commercial feed or customer-formula feed shall be deemed to be misbranded:
A. if its labeling is false or misleading in any particular;
B. if it is distributed under the name of another feed;
C. if it is not labeled as required in Section 76-19-5 NMSA 1978 of the Commercial Feed Law [76-19-1 to 76-19-14 NMSA 1978] and in regulations prescribed under that act;
D. if it purports to be or is represented as a feed ingredient, or if it purports to contain or is represented as containing a feed ingredient, unless such feed ingredient conforms to the definition if any, prescribed by regulation of the board. In the adopting of such regulations, the board shall give due regard to commonly accepted definitions such as those issued by the association of American feed control officials; or
E. if any word, statement or other information required by or under authority of the Commercial Feed Law to appear on the label or labeling is not prominently placed thereon with such conspicuousness (as compared with other words, statements, designs or devices in the labeling) and in such terms as to render it likely to be read and understood by the ordinary individual under customary conditions of of [sic] purchase and use.
