History of Use
The number and RFID signal on the tag is used to identify and track individual animals (cows) by assigning them a unique number which is linked information on their origins and movement throughout the animal’s life. Tag printed with unique and number: once sealed, the tag cannot be removed for re-use. The tag remains in place until after slaughter, when carcass is inspected and declared acceptable. Only then are tag & number retired.
