What benefit does animal tracing provide?
A. When there is a disease outbreak or other animal health event, the animal tracking databases provide timely, accurate records that show where your animals have been and what other animals have come into contact with them. This information makes it easier for producers, States, industry, and USDA to determine the scope of a disease situation and locate infected animals. It also ensures that you receive accurate information about where a disease event is occurring and where it is headed.
