Dog or cat food, put up for retail sale

1. Scope and Applicability

This PCR defines foreground manufacturing data requirements for dog or cat food placed on the retail market. It covers complete and complementary prepared pet food in dry, wet, and semi-moist forms, including products described as treats when they are legally marketed as complementary dog or cat food. The foreground dataset starts with received ingredients, feed materials, additives, processing aids, and packaging and ends with conforming retail-ready product at the manufacturing gate.

The PCR does not by itself define a cradle-to-grave Product Environmental Footprint. Ingredient production, packaging production, distribution, feeding, food loss outside the manufacturing site, and packaging end-of-life require linked upstream or downstream datasets. For downstream PEF studies of complete meals, the manufacturing result must be converted from the mass reference used here to the declared daily-ration functional unit using the product-specific metabolizable-energy density and daily energy requirement.

Required qualifiers	target species; complete or complementary feeding purpose; target life stage or physiological state; moisture class (dry/wet/semi-moist); as-sold moisture content; metabolizable-energy density and method; net content; recipe or product family; manufacturing route; packaging masses and materials by level (primary/secondary/tertiary); manufacturing site and geography; reporting period

When constructing a foreground data package, the items listed in Required qualifiers must be declared in dataset metadata, process notes, reference flow comment, product description, or an equivalent data package field. Missing required qualifiers make the reference flow definition incomplete for that data package.

4. Measurement and Unit Rules

rule_id	Applies to	Required property	Required unit	Rule
reference_net_mass	reference product	Mass	kg	Normalize every inventory result to 1 kg conforming net pet-food content; record packaging mass separately and do not include it in the reference amount.
as_sold_moisture	reference product and ingredient quantities	Mass	kg	Report the product in its as-sold state and retain measured moisture or dry-matter data needed to reconcile wet, dry, or semi-moist classifications and material balances.
energy_carrier_separation	electricity and fuels	Energy	kWh for electricity; MJ or carrier-specific mass/volume plus lower-heating-value conversion for fuels	Preserve each energy carrier separately. Record measured purchased or generated quantities and document every conversion factor without replacing carrier identity with a single undifferentiated energy total.
water_accounting	process and sanitation water	Volume or Mass	m3 or kg	Record withdrawal or supplied water by measured quantity and convert between mass and volume only with a declared density assumption and temperature basis when material.
packaging_mass_conversion	primary, secondary, and tertiary packaging	Mass	kg	Convert packaging item counts or surface areas to mass with product-specific specifications, measured sample masses, or supplier data, and retain the source record.
daily_ration_conversion	downstream complete-meal PEF use	Mass and metabolizable energy	kg and kcal ME/kg	Do not compare complete pet foods on the 1 kg manufacturing reference alone. Calculate product mass per daily ration as declared daily energy requirement divided by product-specific metabolizable-energy density and disclose both inputs and their methods.
