TERMS OF SALE - CASH

BENEFITS TO YOU—THE BUYER The Highlands and Islands Sheep Health Association offer flockmasters the following benefits.

INSURANCE POLICY A greatly reduced risk of contracting EAE in flocks by buying in breeding stock from flocks which have a proven health status.

HEALTHY BREEDING STOCK Buyers can be sure that many ewe lambs bought for breeding have been fully vaccinated for clostridia and pasteurella, reducing the risk of losses following the sale.

PROVEN HEALTH STATUS Buyers receive a certificate of full accredited health status from the producer, for the stock they purchase. The certificate is issued to the producer by the SVIS on completion of two years testing with no evidence of EAE infection in his flock.

As part of the EAE controlled programme, veterinary advice states that the using of EAE vaccine in clean sheep before introduction to an infected flock makes a vaccine control programme more effective.

The Highlands and Islands Sheep Health Scheme—providing the stamp of quality and high health status you must have to protect your flock.

NOTICES

SHEEP IDENTIFICATION AND TRACEABILITY REQUIREMENTS DOUBLE TAGGING REQUIREMENTS FROM 31 DECEMBER 2009 The new EID regulations require animals born or first identified after 31 December 2009 to be EID double tagged with the exception of animals intended for slaughter Tagging Requirements For both the single and double tagging requirements the tags must be applied within nine months of birth, or when they first move off the holding of birth if that is sooner, and must have the following information - Slaughter animals All animals intended for domestic slaughter within 12 months of age must be identified using a single electronic slaughter tag (batch tag). This has only the flockmark printed on the outside of the tag, and the flockmark and individual number programmed into the electronic chip Fully EID identified animals (born or identified after 31 December 2009 and kept for breeding or beyond 12 months of age) two identifiers, one electronic and one conventional - with ‘UK’ followed by a ‘0’, then your unique flockmark, followed by a five-digit animal number printed on the outside of the tag, and also programmed into the electronic chip Movement documents It is a legal requirement that all sheep must be accompanied with a properly completed and signed Scottish Government Movement Document when moving to the market to allow accurate notification of movements to SAMU Sheep Tagging Requirements 2015 From 1st January 2015 all sheep born before 1st January 2010 which are not already EID tagged should be upgraded prior to moving to market.
