Tags and Applicators
One of the most important aspects of value-added marketing programs for cattle is the ability to individually identify each calf enrolled. Depending on the program, there are many forms of identification that are acceptable. These include brands, tags, ear notches, etc. Of course, one of the most popular and efficient forms of identification is the use of ear tags.

At IMI Global, we recommend Allflex USA Inc. As our preffered tag manufacturing partner. You can learn more about Allflex at: www.allflexusa.com
