HOW SHOULD I PLAN FOR ENROLLING?

1. Each farm must have a USDA/APHIS Farm Scrapie number which are issued by the state, usually through the state’s department of agriculture. Contact your state Department of Agriculture to obtain an identification number or call 1-866-873-2824. (This is different from the Livestock Premises Registrations required by some states.)

2. Producers make a commitment to collecting milk production information a minimum of three (3), preferably five (5) times during the milking season. The more times that data is submitted, the more accurate the returned estimated breeding values will be.
