			 measure (e.g., cans, cups, poimds); and
(3) An affidavit shall acCornpany the request
			 for label review or registration, substantiating that the calorie content was
			 determined:
a. By calculation using the

			 + (3.5 x NFE)]
where CP = % crude protein as fed
CF = % crude fat as fed
NFE = % nitrogen free extract (carbobydrate) as fed and the
				percentages of CP and CF are the arithmetic averages from proximate analyses of
				at least four production batches of the product, and the NFE is calculated as
				the difference between 100 and the sum of CP, CF, and the percentages of crude
				fiber, moisture and ash (determined in the same manner as CP and CF). The
				results of all the analyses used in the calculation must acCornpany the
				affidavit, and the claim on the label or other labeling must be followed
				parenthetically by the word "calculated"; or
b. In accordance with a testing procedure
			 established by the Association of American Feed Control Officials. The summary
			 data used in the determination of calorie content must acCornpany the
