January 1, 2009 Animal ID & Traceability
  Estimated costs of adopting bookend or full tracing NAIS practices by  species for an average operation in selected industry segments are  summarized in table 1.  A bookend system refers to simply identifying the  animal individually or in group/lot fashion at its birth premises and then  terminating the record at the packing plant when the animal is  processed, with no intermittent tracing or recording of animal  movement.  A full tracing system refers to the bookend plus also tracing  and recording movements of animals (individually or by group depending  on species) through their lifetime as they change ownership.   For a typical dairy cow operation, total cost of a bookend system would  be $2.47 per cow and full tracing $3.43 per cow annually.  A large portion  of the costs for dairy cow operations are costs of individual electronic  tags for calves for a bookend system plus scanning costs for a full tracing  system.  The typical beef cow operation would incur higher cost than the  typical dairy producer with a $3.92 per cow bookend adoption cost and a  $4.22 per cow full tracing cost.  Other segments of the beef industry (i.e.,  backgrounders, feedlots, auction markets, and packers) incur much  smaller costs than the cow sector because their main costs are replacing  lost tags for a bookend and incurring scanning costs for full tracing.   Porcine adoption costs of bookend and full tracing are much smaller than  bovine costs because porcine utilize primarily group identification by pen  or lot rather than individual animal identification (with the exception of  cull breeding animals that use individual identification).  For a typical  farrow‐to‐wean operation, annual costs of a bookend system are $0.01  per animal sold and a fully tracing system costs $0.025 per animal sold.    Ovine operations would use group identification for lambs but individual  identification for breeding animals.  Annual costs to adopt a bookend  system would be $0.71 per animal sold and to adopt a full tracing system  would be $1.07 per animal sold.   Poultry operations would utilize exclusively lot identification systems and  have relatively low adoption costs of about $0.02 per animal sold  annually for layers and $0.001 per animal sold for broilers.  vii  …
