TB Regulations from Jan 1 st 2013<br />

ANNUAL TESTING PARISHES<br />

FAT CATTLE can be moved to a Red slaughter only markets where the 6 Day Rule does NOT apply<br />

STORE CATTLE must be pre-movement tested and the 6 Day rule applies (Pre-movement test lasts 60 days)<br />

4 YEAR TESTING PARISHES<br />

Cattle can move to any market without pre-movement testing<br />

WEDNESDAY MARKETS are RED MARKETS every week<br />

FEEDING COWS, STORE AND BREEDING CATTLE, SHEEP AND PIGS will be held on SATURDAYS<br />

We believe that this will be in everyone’s best interest and look forward to continuing to provide a complete marketing service<br />

to all our clients.<br />

The market is licenced to accept cattle from TB Restricted Herds, ie. Herds that have had a TB breakdown in our Red<br />

(Slaughter only) markets subject to the following conditions:<br />

The animals being presented for sale must have had a negative TB test in the previous 90 days and it applies to all holdings<br />

under TB2 restrictions, whether one or four yearly testing parishes<br />

In order for you to bring your stock here you will need to obtain a licence (TB24B) from your local Defra Animal Health Office.<br />

Obviously there will be many concerns and questions that you may have, we will continue to update you in this publication or<br />

better still ring anytime<br />

SHEEP TAGGING & RECORDING REQUIREMENTS FROM 1 ST JANUARY 2015<br />

ENGLAND – LAMBS<br />

As from 1 st January all lambs being identified from this date on any holding in England must be identified with either Double<br />

Electronic Tags (Breeders) or a Single Electronic Slaughter Tag (Prime Lambs and/or Store Lambs).<br />

Sheep Keepers will record the single identified lambs by batch – recording the Number of<br />

Animals and Flock Numbers.<br />

Lambs born in 2014 and identified with a single, non-electronic tag DO NOT need to be<br />

retagged when moved after 1 st January 2015.<br />

CULL EWES<br />

Those individually identified with electronic tags will be electronically read and recorded.<br />

For those individually identified with the old style Manual/Non-Electronic Tags (Historic Flock) it is our recommendation that<br />

Sheep Keepers retag these at the time of selling with a set of double electronic tags.<br />

However rules do permit:<br />

Those sheep being moved as a “Batch” direct to slaughter (including through a market) using old manual tags as the identifier<br />

list the total number in each consignment<br />

BUT<br />

If these sheep move to a non-abattoir holding or through a market to a non-abattoir holding, they must have their individual<br />

manual/non electronic tags (UK +(up to) 12 digits) read and recorded on the Movement Licence.<br />

We recommend any Historic Flock with old style non electronic tags be sold with a declaration to slaughter.<br />

Please ensure all Ewes sold are tagged with electronic tags – we will read them and provide you with print outs of numbers –<br />

failure could impact upon your Single Farm Payment Monies. If in doubt please speak to Keith on 07801 032847 or James<br />

on 07772 618315

Another busy Saturday in Newark despite starting to see numbers start to<br />

dry up elsewhere. Trade<br />

seemed to improve as the week went on and today would confirm that<br />

with all departments seeing<br />

an increase in trade on the week.<br />

Numbers on the Market nationally increased this week and a similar story here today. Lambs were a<br />

firmer trade as we see Firms start to make the switch returning an SQQ of 220.47p/kg. We do have a<br />

After talking to farmers recently in markets throughout the Midlands it is clear that the wool industry faces an exciting and challenging<br />

time. I look forward, if elected, to working hard to meet these challenges on your behalf.<br />

The BWMB is invaluable to the sheep industry always providing a place to sell wool. In turn supporting all sheep producers and<br />

the stratification system that we rely on to maintain agriculture as a way of life throughout the UK. They actively engage with all<br />

levels of the wool industry from farm to shop and are best placed to help the industry adapt to the market. Ultimately price is<br />

key and we must strive to make wool a valuable commodity and not a cost to the farm budget.<br />

I have been fortunate to have been involved in agriculture my whole life, growing up and working on the family farm near Market<br />

Harborough, Leics/Northants Border. Competing at a National level with Berrrichon sheep and regularly visiting the Paris<br />

Show.<br />

Attending two agricultural colleges, Moulton and The Royal at Cirencester, and working on research stations both in the Uk and<br />

in France I am passionate about where we stand in the sheep world for both wool and meat. I have worked for a shearing gang,<br />

an agricultural market, education/farming charity and have experience of lobbying, and the board room through Council and<br />

School Governor work.<br />

The English Central Region covers a diverse 17 counties and therefore requires a broad approach to represent it. It is an exciting<br />

time with wool commanding a bigger audience through the “Campaign for Wool”, demand increasing on the world stage,<br />

consumers wanting local/natural products and shearing training valued. If I am successful I will relish the opportunity to represent<br />

you.
