**Preface to "Mycotoxin Contamination Management Tools and Efficient Strategies in Feed Industry"**

Mycotoxins represent a significant issue for the feed industry and the safety of the feed supply chain, with an impact on human health, animal health and production, economies, and international trade. Notifications on the Rapid Alert System for Food and Feed (RASFF) concerning mycotoxins are among the "top 10" hazard categories, with risk decision categorized as "serious". Mycotoxin contamination of feed is a recurring problem in the livestock feed industry in an increasingly competitive marketplace. The globalization of the trade in agricultural commodities and the lack of legislative harmonization have contributed significantly to the discussion about the awareness of mycotoxins entering the feed/food supply chain. The feed industry is a sustainable outlet for food processing industries, converting byproducts into high-quality animal feed. Mycotoxin occurrence in food byproducts from different technological processes is a worldwide topic of interest for the feed industry, aiming to increase the marketability and acceptance of these products as feed ingredients and include them safely in the feed supply chain. Since mycotoxin contamination cannot be completely prevented pre- or post-harvest, precise knowledge of mycotoxin occurrence and repartitioning during technological processes and decontamination strategies is critical and may provide a sound technical basis for feed managers to conform to legislation requirements and reduce the risk of severe adverse health, market, and trade repercussions.

This Special Issue highlights research topics with a high impact for a sustainable and competitive feed industry that focus on new tools for monitoring and managing the risk of mycotoxins at industrial level and strategies to prevent and reduce mycotoxins in compound feed manufacturing.

The editor wishes to thank the contributors, reviewers, and the support of the Toxins editorial staff, whose professionalism and dedication have made this issue possible.
