AEMB
| Livestock Workshops (Animal Health & Welfare, International Trade) |
The trade of domestic animals is the source of UECBV. The restructuring of farms and of the meat industry has contributed to the development of this trade whose key is a safe medical environment and the strict compliance with the animal welfare regulations.
The section of livestock trade brings together experts from the national federations of livestock traders and livestock markets.
The section members meet three to four times a year, under the chairmanship of Mr Heinz Osterloh.
The working group goal is to follow, update, discuss, exchange information and prepare UECBV positions on livestock related issues, such as Animal Health (e.g. Animal Health Law, diseases and disease outbreaks in the EU and in neighboring countries), Animal Welfare (e.g. protection of animal during transport, at the farms, EU animal welfare strategy), Intra Community and international trade (e.g. Council Directive 64/432/EEC, electronic identification, export to Russia and Turkey), trade distortions and legislation related to livestock and any other concern related to the livestock sector.
