[QUOTE="Workinonit Farm, post: 65256, member: 839"] 9 ER, what little I know at this point for Va., we the animal owners will pay for the "tags". At this point the approximate cost per tag is $2.50 a piece. The "plan" at this point, is the tags will be a button type of tag, with a number in small print on the face of the tag. It will be an electronic tag to be "read" by some type of scanning device. This tag will give the animal a permanent ID number for the life of that animal. When the animal changes hands it still retains it's number but the name of the owner is changed and recorded as such. (like transfering registration papers). There are still so many logistical details to be worked out, I don't see how this whole thing can get up and running in the near future. Somewhere along the line the costs for all the scanning devices, software and record keeping will probably come from us, the animal producers in the form of increased "stockyard" fees, taxes who knows how.
