Wisconsin Cattle Dealers Told of New Brucellosis Rules
At the Wisconsin Independent Livestock Dealers Association convention, officials outlined post April 1 1985 brucellosis testing and vaccination requirements for heifers and bulls. State vet Joan Arnoldi stressed enforcement to keep the state brucellosis free, with calves born before June 1 1984 grandfathered and beef heifers under one year exempt when moved to approved feedlots. Bulls under six months must be vaccinated before movement unless to a market or approved lot, and after April 1 1985 heifers 4 to 10 months old must be vaccinated to move within the state without testing.

Stan Smebbaken outlined legal penalties under the Federal Trade Act and Packers and Stockyards Act for false drug residue certifications. He described tracing calves from packer to farmer, the risk of criminal penalties, and cautioned dealers to protect themselves with timely notice on bad checks and related financial safeguards.
