Is cattle test required before mart?

eamon11 · 2012-10-22 06:25:17

hi, the cattle were tested in may. I want to sell a few in a few weeks. As I understand it the test is good for a year but am i required to re test before selling? Its an old farm still in my fathers name.

hi eamon,

if they bullocks or females under 18mts you can sell away once tb test is within 12 calendar months... if they cows, a bull or females over 18mts they will need a brucelosis tst and must be sold within 60 days of this test or a retest is required
