Challenges of Animal Identification in the West Prepared by: Russell Tronstad, Ph.D. Professor and Extension Specialist Department of Agricultural and Resource Economics University of Arizona Western Center for Risk Management Education Western Extension Marketing Committee

Unique Issues for West Geographic terrain Land ownership Production-management systems + Summer and winter ranges Grazing associations + Multiple herds in same pasture + Tribal herds

Long-Term Precipitation

Beef Calf Crop, % 19% 40%

Western Settlement History After Civil War Miners, Loggers, Railroaders, and Settlers Longhorn Cattle + drive over long stretches with no water Settlement Acts Forest Service (1905) Department of Interior

Land Ownership of U.S. 47% of land is federally managed in the West

Geographic Production Challenges Rugged terrain Stocking density of West Large distances between summer and winter ranges Wildlife interactions Drought frequency and associated cattle movements

Ownership Challenges Owners with multiple ranch locations Cattle with multiple owners Branding and Brand Inspections + insufficient for traceback Intermingling of cattle herds in summer grazing ranges

People Challenges Independent nature of individuals. Skepticism among Native Americans Animal IDs / Tribal Producers Importance of encryption Time to Implement

Summary An animal ID system needs to fit within existing ranch activities and operations Animal ID needs to compliment ranch management activities to be cost effective Brands and brand inspection laws in the West are insufficient for trace back of U.S.’s food supply
