California Department of Food and Agriculture

Introduction

• Animal Health/Disease Concerns

• Animal Movements of Interest

• Current Traceability Tools

• Traceability Gaps

• Recommendations

Animal Health Concerns(Focus on Disease Programs)

Cattle Diseases of ConcernDisease Programs Must Drive Traceability

• Bovine Tuberculosis (TB)**

• Bovine Brucellosis

• BSE (imports)

• Trichomonosis (priority in West)

• Foreign Animal Diseases (FAD)s

• Emerging Diseases (perhaps unknown today)

**TB (etc.) cannot be eradicated without adequate traceability

SCHEDULE?

2009 California TB Event

• 4 affected herds

• 8 infected cows, three different strains

• ~659 traces of ~21,000 cattle

• Tested ~254 herds (310 tests), ~419,000 cattle to date

TB Testing and RFID

• Provided over 400,000 RFIDs

• Well received by producers

• Enhanced accuracy and decrease testing time during retests

• Collected RFID information for over 3,500 suspect animals at slaughter plant (able to quickly reconcile data)

Accuracy, labor, speed, safety

Mistakes (transposing numbers) common when visually

reading official ID.

Animal Movements of Interest

International Movements – 2009

• Mexico (better ID than US if available?)

– 55,700 imported into California (known)

– Cattle graze with or near domestic cattle in

Central and Southern California

– May change ownership numerous times

before moving to feedlot or slaughter

• Canada

– Less than 600 dairy

– Beef ~ 200 direct to slaughter

Interstate - 2009

• 39,597 shipments (border

reports)

– 17,115,271 animals

• 4,247 permits issued

– 385,243 animals

– Required for most cattle,

sheep, goats, swine, waterfowl,

bison

Current Traceability Tools

Traceability Tools (Official ID)

• Brucellosis Vaccination tag (“Bangs tag”)

– California requires all heifers to be vaccinated including those imported from other states

– Often only ID at slaughter for intrastate movement

• USDA Silver “bright” tag– Often the only official id on interstate

movement

– Used during TB and Brucellosis testing for animals without an official ID

• Cheap/easy to place, but expensive/difficult to read and record

Traceability Tools - Official ID

• Canada and Mexican official ID

– Sometimes the ID is removed so

unable to trace it to a State/Province

• Brands

– As a supplemental ID has helped

tracing animals when other ID is not

present

– Removed at slaughter

– Not unique

– Only 14 Brand States

Traceability Tools - Records

• Brucellosis vaccination– Over 800,000 heifers/year

• 90 % dairy

– CDFA – State database and manages distribution of tags

• Interstate Certificates of Veterinary Inspection (CVIs)– 18,202 received and reviewed from other States

• 596,549 animals

– Most in paper format (1-2% e-cert for cattle)

– Not currently in data base

• International Certificates– Via specific request to USDA

Traceability Tools - Records

• Brand records– Document many intrastate movements and

some interstate

– Most records in paper format

• Permits– Record location of origin and destination

– Only interstate and some international

• Private testing for official programs– Performed by accredited veterinarians

• Saleyard consignments

Traceability Gaps

Traceability Gaps

• New approach to Brucellosis– With first point testing discontinued, fewer cattle identified

• Fewer states require brucellosis vaccination– Many females no longer have an official ID

• Movement records do not exist for some animals– Mexican and Canadian imports after entry

– Some TB reactors found at slaughter have a Mexican ID but no records of movement in the US

– Removal of official ID is a concern

Traceability Gaps

• Some practitioners retag animal rather than recording existing tags

• Many dealers/traders do not maintain adequate records

• Most official records are in paper format – not in data base – CVIs

– Brand Inspections

– Official Tests

• Saleyard consignments are in paper format

1 2 3 4

Traceability Gaps

• Exhibitions (provide outreach opportunities)– 14,000 youth participate in 4-H projects (CA)

– Jackpots

• No records

• Lack of standards across states– Multiple official IDs and location identifiers

• Some groups of cattle will never have an official ID or require movement records– Concern for long incubating diseases such as BSE

– Discussion neede – is cost worth benefit???

Traceability GapsAn example of economic impact…

The Bovine Tuberculosis (TB) episode of 2002 illustrated the

value added of effective traceability.

Staff at CDFA re-evaluated costs of the TB episode under the

scenario that testing was restricted to herds that were

traced as opposed to an “area test” .

Reducing the number of herds tested from 688 herds (area

testing) to 129 herds (trace) could reduce costs to the

government by $880,000 (CDFA costs $505,000, USDA

costs $375,000). Plus PRODUCER COSTS!

Scrapie Program and IDBroad Industry Support

• Successful

• Simple

• Different types of ID

• Minimal cost

Other Issues

• Food Safety and Drug Residues

– Lack of identification is a problem

– FSIS now enforcing residue HACCP and

penalizing plants – plants must respond

– If untraceable may impact producers ability to sell

• USDA and FDA reaching out to states to help

Recommendations

Process

• Identify and prioritize traceability needs for existing disease programs

• Identify current traceability tools that are effective

• Identify gaps

• Fill gaps

• Provide appropriate message/justification

Specific Recommendations - ExampleIdentify/Prioritize Traceability Needs for Existing

Disease Program – TB Program

• Bovine TB – perhaps highest priority for cattle– Can justify national ID requirements/50 state participation

• Identify existing effective traceability tools– Brucellosis tags, silver brights, RFID, etc.

– Accept all, but promote advantages (RFID

• Identify high risk animals that need to be identified– Breeding animals

– Imports

– Rodeo/Event cattle



• Identify those high risk movements/events to

capture data

– Movement from herd of origin (intra or interstate)

– Vaccination

– Interstate movement

– Testing for movement, investigation, sale, etc.

– Collection of ID at slaughter (needs investment)



• Record keeping

– Support data base needs in each staete

– Link to existing programs

– Ensure standards among states

– Strive for more automation over time (electronic CVIs, etc.)

• Demonstrate to producers and other stakeholders why animal disease traceability is needed to eliminate TB)
