Traceability Solution

RFID Beef Traceability System

Farm Ministry in Japan began numbering all cows in Japan as part of the emergency measure to deal with mad cow disease, tagging the first cow in the town of Yamato, Gifu Prefecture, in central Japan

All cows will be controlled at each level from production to distribution under the numbering system, to speed up confirmation of cow’s production information, such as place of birth, breed, record of movement in accordance with purchases and sales on a database, should a case of mad cow disease arise
