Just got an email from the ALBC that the USDA is scrapping the NAIS program and will be replacing it with a program yet to be named that will be more friendly to the small farmer. The new program will be only for animals moved across state lines, other animals will not need to be monitored.
Wow! Here is a link to the FAQ at the USDA http://www.aphis.usda.gov/publications/animal_health/content/printable_version/faq_traceability.pdf
and one to the announcement...

Who wonders what this might mean for NPIP? Anyone know?
