Beef cattle owners and others with an interest in animal care and welfare have an opportunity to provide input into the redevelopment of Canada’s beef cattle Code of Practice through an online survey.
The National Farm Animal Care Council (NFACC) is conducting the survey to gain stakeholder insights on the Codes of Practice, and views on the care and handling of beef cattle.
The ten-minute, confidential survey is available at www.nfacc.ca/codes-of-practice/beef-cattle.
The redevelopment of the beef cattle Code is part of a NFACC multi-year project to renew several of the Codes of Practice for the care and handling of farm animals.
A key factor to renewing the codes is achieving buy-in, from the industry. The lead organization responsible for facilitating the beef cattle Code is the Canadian Cattlemen’s Association (CCA).
More information on the codes development process is available from NFACC’s website, www.nfacc.ca.
