Brucellosis management updates.
SF 29 updates Wyoming's brucellosis management rules for livestock. It changes the requirement for permanently branding cattle with a "B" after a positive test from mandatory to discretionary, giving producers more flexibility. The bill also revises testing procedures for cattle, modifies documentation needed to receive compensation for testing, and requires the Wyoming Livestock Board to create new rules by July 1, 2023. These changes directly affect Wyoming livestock producers who manage animals in brucellosis surveillance areas. The law takes effect July 1, 2023, except for the rulemaking requirement, which is immediate.
