One of the headline amendments is the new requirement for producers to upload total antibiotic use to the electronic medicine book, eMB-Pigs, on a quarterly basis within six weeks of the end of each quarter. This will take effect from November 11, at which point scheme members will need to have entered data from the second and third quarters of 2017.
The rest of the changes (Responsible use of medicines, Notching, Imported stock and semen testing, Biosecurity, Supplementary rearing accommodation, Feed and water, Environment, Farm map, Rodenticide use) take effect from October 1.
