LR153

Nebraska LR153 proposes an interim study on electronic identification devices for animal management in livestock production.

Nebraska LR153 directs the Agriculture Committee to conduct an interim study on electronic identification devices used for animal disease traceability, surveillance, and control. The study will compile a list of available devices, including manufacturers, vendors, and brand names. It will also gather information on the locations of manufacturers and the sources of chip components. The findings will assist future legislative deliberations on sourcing and limitations of these devices to mitigate vulnerabilities to foreign interference.
