Stand By Present Tuberculosis Free Herd Plan
A joint committee from purebred cattle associations and the United States Live Stock Sanitary Association determined no changes should lower the high standard of the tuberculosis free accredited herd plan. No herd with any tubercular animal will be accredited. A supplementary list of owners of tuberculin-free herds after two tests may be created, but such herds will not receive accredited status. The renaming bull may be used under specific conditions. The plan is run by the Bureau of Animal Industry, USDA, with state cooperation.
