The Nebraska Brand Committee (NBC) announced the e-inspection subcommittee has begun to gather information about implementing voluntary electronic inspection authorized by legislative changes to the Livestock Brand Act (LB 572).
At the NBC public meeting on Sept. 8, the subcommittee, which comprised producers and other stakeholders, was approved to solicit knowledge and technical information about non-visual identifiers. The information is the foundation for a system that will create greater efficiencies including producer expenses, staff time and travel, improving access to documentation, and adding value on existing electronic ID usage at operations.
E-inspection is not mandated, but it will be offered as an option for brand inspection compliance.
