Traceability is likely to become an important part of livestock production as animals move and are processed through the system, but it involves a fair bit of diligent work.
To help make that easier, MyLivestock.ca has created an app that tracks the movement of cattle and pigs across Canada. The system provides digital manifests, opt-in CCIA and PigTRACE automated reporting, humane transport records, transfer of care management, and real-time notifications of livestock movement. At Manitoba Ag Days in January, it was awarded first prize in the animal and livestock category at the show’s Innovation Showcase.
