Provincial Swine Movement Reporting

Swine movement data will be reported directly to PigTrace by the site operator or their designate using various reporting tools (some yet to be developed) such as:

  • Online via www.pigtace.ca;
  • Via cellular network using handheld unit or mobile device (i.e., eManifest);
  • Integration with commercial herd management software; and
  • Integration with databases of commercial transport companies.

Alberta Pork and the Alberta Government have initiated a provincial swine traceability initiative, including regulations. PigTrace Canada works closely with Alberta Pork and the Alberta Department of Agriculture and Rural Development to ensure that the Alberta Swine Traceability System will meet all federal requirements. As such, Albertans will report all movements in accordance with the provincial traceability system. PigTrace Canada will then obtain all necessary information from the provincial database.

With respect to Newfoundland, Yukon, NWT and Nunavut, PigTrace Canada is working with provincial and territorial government representatives in these regions as there is not a local pork organization present.
