The self-control program is evidence of one's own supervision in the factory, and may include a variety of analyzes (mycological, mycotoxicological, chemical, spectrophotometric). The aim of the paper is to carry out an analysis of the effectiveness of self-control programs for mycotoxins, between January and June 2019, for a factory laboratory in a feed mill from Romania. Methodologically, the data were processed, analyzed and synthesized in the form of graphs and tables. The results show that during the analyzed period, the self-control program for mycotoxins in the factory laboratory provided a total number of 1080 analyzes to be performed, of which 720 for raw materials, and 360 for compound feed; in fact, 455 analyzes were performed (42.1% of the total), of which 255 for raw materials (35.4%) and 200 for compound feed (55.5%). As a result of the study carried out in the feed mill, it is found that the monitoring of the level of mycotoxin contamination should be increased by increasing the degree of accomplishment of the analyzes proposed in the self-control program.
