The tags are read with an electronic reader in the plant. since the carcass flow on a rail one after the other once the head is gone a roller with an electronic reader or holes in the roller and read with laser light indicates the carcass ID. This works up to the fabrication and then the side is broken into many pieces on as many as seven tables with up to fifty employees per table, this is were the trace back ends!

So what all does these tags read. and what is a sample of what is read.

[ValueChainFX]

ALICIA the tag can be used to identify the lot of cattle that is on the kill floor (actually an animal in the lot) once the tag goes through the reader it is added to the CCIA retirement list. The tag is then retired or the CCIA knows the animal has been slaughtered.

There is other information that could be collected in used but at this point most of that info is not available to the CCIA or the producer. This would be the type of information that may come from the Vision grading system.
