Description

What if all the key players in the beef cattle chain, from breeders to market, could consult one comprehensive database for information on every animal? What if farmers could search for stock bulls, weight records and ancestry? The Irish Cattle Breeding Federation is making it possible. Martin Ryan serves on the board of ICBF and gives us an inside look at this game-changing system.
