With the peak cattle pneumonia season looming and the likely need to treat animals for disease, Intervet/Schering-Plough Animal Health has produced a new medicine record book to help producers effectively document animal health product usage.
The Resflor-sponsored booklet incorporates space to record all the necessary information to comply with legislative requirements.
“If you are in the business of rearing, producing or treating farm animals that will end up as food for human consumption, you must keep a record of any veterinary medicinal product you give or treat them with,” explained Intervet/Schering-Plough livestock veterinary adviser Paul Williams MRCVS.
“You must also keep proof of purchase of all veterinary medicinal products and keep all your records for a period of five years. A format for keeping all these records is set out in this book.”
The new Resflor medicine record books are available free from veterinary practices.
