The electronic version of the new Activity Report is now available. In 2012-2013, ATQ took important steps in its development. Indeed, ATQ will participate in creating the Canadian Agricultural Traceability Services organization (CATS) that will respond to Canadian demands for traceability. Other initiatives such as projects that promote the traceability of agricultural products from farm to slaughterhouse, as well as projects based on the development of innovations and integration of technological tools have also been carried out to reach ATQ’s objectives.

Are you planning on buying sheep ear tags soon? Pay attention because, as of April 1, 2013, new conditions will apply to the purchase of sheep ear tags paid through the ASRA program of the Financière agricole.
In collaboration with the Financière agricole du Québec (FADQ), a simplified checklist has been developed to facilitate traceability and livestock insurance tasks to feeder calve and lamb producers that are insured to ASRA program.
The contract between the Canadian Pork Council (CPC) and Agri-Traçabilité Québec was formalized in February in order for ATQ to provide traceability services to the swine sector at the national level.
