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

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.
