Botswana branding

Botswana branding

It was two years of hard work, but in Q3 (third quarter) of 2002, Botswana s Ministry of Agriculture confirmed that 600,000 cattle in the country had been branded under the Livestock Identification and Trace-Back System (LITS). LITS branding facilitates the so-called trace-back of cut beef from sale houses and slaughter facilities to the individual animal where it originated. It is now required by the European Union for all meat imports; not something for a country to sniff at when the EU takes 90% of its meat exports.
