TB Testing

March 9, 2016 12:00 am

The TB testing regime is to be tightened.  The Government has announced that post-movement testing for bovine TB will be introduced in the Low Risk Area (LRA) of England for cattle which have moved from High Risk Areas (HRAs) in England and also from Wales.  The new legislation is expected to come into force from 6th April.  The post movement test must be done between 60 and 120 days of the cattle arriving on the holding in the LRA.  More information can be found on the TBHub website http://www.tbhub.co.uk/guidance/testing-and-compensation/post-movement-testing-in-lra/
