Livestock Traceability in Canada - Is it do-able?
6 Replies

Do you think the Federal Provincial Territorial Ministers (Canada) commitment at the FPT meeting this summer of having a full traceability system for Livestock in place by 2011 is achievable?

Hi Sara, my name is Kait and I work for Canada's Fruit & Veg Tech X-Change.  We are hosting our inaugural outdoor horticulture event this coming July 12, 13, 14  2012.  Part of our event is going to include a "Farm Female XPO" as we felt this was an area we greatly overlooked last year.  I see that you hold Professional Women in Agriculture gatherings and I was wondering if you could send me some more information about this.  If you could respond via email to info@fruitveg.ca it would be greatly appreciated.  You also seem like a very influential woman in agriculture and I would love to connect with you at some point and discuss some of my ideas for the woman's expo and get the thoughts and suggestions for women in the business.  Thanking you in advance, kind regards.  Kait Schuster

USDA Official Calls California’s Prop 12 a Threat to a Unified U.S. Pork Market

A senior USDA official has renewed strong criticism of California’s Proposition 12, calling the state’s animal housing and product sale standards a form of domestic trade protectionism that could disrupt the national pork market and raise costs for producers and consumers. At a recent agriculture policy event, the deputy secretary of agriculture described laws like Prop 12 as creating de-facto trade barriers within the United States. Under the complaint, when a single state sets production standards that apply not just to products sold from within the state but to all products entering its borders, it can place producers in other regions at a competitive disadvantage. Prop 12, first approved by California voters in 2018, sets minimum space requirements for certain livestock and prohibits the sale of pork and other animal products in California that do not meet those standards. Because California represents a large share of U.S. pork consumption but only a small share of production, t
