Dont you just love the way these types of consultations are brought in as quietly as possible, hopefully no one will notice. Fortunately someone did and I for one am very pleased that this issue has yet to go away.
There has already been a dispensation granted for some parcs here in France who maintain ornamental flocks of sheep on view to the public to dispense with plastic ear tags in favour of subcutaneous microchips as was announced in the most recent GEMO bulletin. Thank goodness some advocacy exists out there for breeders who are not satisfied with the current one cap fits all approach. Its a shame that the option to microchip was not investigated more throughly at an earlier stage. I look foward to future announcements. LINK to the site page and consultation paper for the UK.
Puce électronique sous-cutanée bien tôt pour moutons non-destiné pour la consomption? Qui sait.... à voir.
