National Sheep Health Statement

From Monday 31 March 2008 a new national Ovine Johnes Disease (OJD) program comes into force.

The National Sheep Health Statement aims to help producers minimise the risk of introducing OJD onto their property.

Two copies of the National Sheep Health Statement must be downloaded and signed. One copy is to accompany the consigned sheep - the other copy must be retained for traceability.
