Ministerial Decree laying down sanitary measures on mountain grazing, transhumance and pasture of ovine and caprine animals.

With a view to avoiding the spreading of brucellosis, from 1 January 2001 ovine and caprine animals may be shifted for grazing or transhumance purposes only when such animals are not infected. The identification code of the enterprise owning the animals concerned must be provided in the certificate. Movements of ovines and caprines for grazing or transhumance purposes must be registered by the veterinary services under the competent local health authorities.
