What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

This bill requires the Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer

Protection to create a voluntary individual animal identification program for

livestock owners. Under the program, DATCP must maintain an online list of

retailers that supply radio frequency identification (RFID) tags. An RFID tag must

include a 15-digit individual animal identification number that is connected to the

livestock premises identification code for the animal's premises of origin. The bill

also allows DATCP to contract with an agent to collect and maintain individual

animal identification records, which may include submitting the information to an

existing state or federal database.
