SLAPMARKING !! - For Best Results be sure to use INK, not Paste
Pigs Producers Please act now and for ever !
Please check regularly the cleanliness and condition of your slapmarking equipment:
The Meat Hygiene Service (MHS) may use their powers to bin the pigs not correctly identified, as unsuitable for human consumption, at a total loss to the producer.
If the problem becomes more widespread the EU will insist that all pigs are tagged.
The solution is in your hands
SLAP PIGS PROPERLY!
It is your responsibility!

SQQ Prices quoted are in respect of Old Season Lambs (OSL)
The 'Av. Deadweight' price, in pence per kilo, is the published average price of all lambs;
prices quoted relate to the average for week ending 27 January- (Source AHDB via EBLEX) N.B. Prices should be used solely for establishing trends as they include premium prices, such as organic, on the one hand and are not fully representative being from only 22% of the total lambs killed.
Friday 3 February
The trade is good and prices still remain bullish (although they have sliipped a little) because of many less lambs in both UK and the EU.

IMPORTANT
ALL CATTLE MUST HAVE 2 TAGS WHEN BEING MOVED FROM FARM TO FARM OR FOR SLAUGHTER
The regulations regarding Cattle Identification were updated on the 6th April 2007.
Decisions regarding difficulties in identification at the slaughterhouse are now covered under the Food Hygiene Regulations operated by the Food Standards Agency.
Cattle sent for slaughter without tags will usually be destroyed, at the discretion of the Official Veterinary Surgeon (OVS) at the Abattoir, with no payment and a possible penalty for the further disposal of the carcase.
When booking cattle please be certain to notify us of any over 30 month cattle as strict rules govern the transport and slaughter !!!!!
Please note :
Not every abattoir can slaughter over 30 month old cattle
Eligible abattoirs may only slaughter at specific times during the week
Over 30 month old cattle must travel separately to others. If a beast of over 30 months is delivered with other stock to an abattoir it may be condemned or have its value reduced.
Please be sure to keep us informed exactly, regarding the age of cattle when you book.
BSE testing
On the afternoon of Wednesday 10th December 2008, the FSA agreed to support a move to increase from 30 months to 48 months the age at which cattle slaughtered for human consumption are BSE tested. The board based their decision on the advice received from SEAC (Spongiform Encephalopathys Advisory Committee) at its October meeting which stated that the increased risks to public health by raising the testing age was minimal. DEFRA also stated at the meeting that effective surveillance in line with scientific recommendations and statutory obligations would continue.
A summary of the changes :
Under 30 months No testing required, VC (Vertebral Column) does not need to be removed.
30m 48m No testing required, VC must be removed
Over 48m Testing required, VC must be removed
Born Before 1 August 1996 Animals must not enter food chain and must be disposed of as fallen stock
