New EU herdbook allows A-A breeders to export and import cattle

A new EU herdbook forAberdeen-Angus breeders in Ireland and Europe has been established, allowing members of the Aberdeen Angus Cattle Society outwith the mainland, to register and import or export cattle. As one of the UK s most popular breeds to be exported, up to 2000 pedigree heifers are regularly exported to the continent through various outlets every year. There is also a large trade in semen and embryos, which without approval as a society in a third country could have been lost, if steps had not been taken to address the situation. Following the UK s split from the EU on January 1, 2021, under EU zootechnical rules, no animal that is not resident in an EU member state can be registered in a herd book outside the EU.
