    There was a thread about BGDP inspection a while back on the forum.
    I had a search but unable to find it. So my query is have many on here had one and if so what was involved.

    From talking to the inspector to arrange the visit, she is looking for
    • Carbon Navigator reports for each year,
    • to inspect some animals on their list.

    Any thing else to have prepared in case she requests any other paper work on the day.

    Regards

    I had one last week. Just have whatever animals were requested in the crush for them, last years genomic tested cows for me, and with their genomic tags. I was asked for my original Carbon Navigator and last years one as well.

    I had the same last year. It was very straight forward

    If the animals had lost their genomic tags would they check for a hole in the ear? A lot of mine have fallen out at this stage.

    Yeah. I had one missing one but found the hole

    I've never used the tags - take hair samples.

    Thanks for the replies peeps, like you KatyMac nearly all mine were hair sampled ( find it far easier to do)so will just be a case of looking at the cows.
