RFID Program
Alberta Agriculture and Rural Development
announced the Age Verification Incentive
Program (AVIP) in May 2010. The three-year
program is designed to encourage the Alberta
beef industry to RFID tag and age-verify their animals. Doing so will
enhance the system that supports animal and public health, improves food
safety and reduces the barriers to domestic and international markets.
UFA is an authorized dealer of CCIA-approved RFID tags and a vendor
participant in the program. Beef producers shopping for RFID tags at
UFA are eligible for an immediate discount of up to $3 per tag. The
number of tags available for discount is based on the number of calves
born in 2010 that have been age-verified or calves that will be by
10 months of age.
For more information about the Age Verification Incentive Program contact
your local UFA Farm and Ranch Supply store or visit UFA.com/beef.
