Where clients have imported cattle that are to be tested by DAERA for Bluetongue virus, the blood samples may also be tested for BVD in the AFBI laboratory. Clients importing cattle may contact you to request that you complete a submission form, the link for which follows:
https://www.afbini.gov.uk/sites/afbini.gov.uk/files/publications/Farm%20Animal%20Submission%20Form_051018.pdf
Your client should have been given a DAERA Test Identification number by the AHWI taking the samples. Please write the DAERA Test Identification number for the sample on the form and add a note that the sample result is to be uploaded to the BVD Programme.
If you have any questions, please contact AFBI’s DSIB or AHWNI, as appropriate.
