Not That Complicated

摘要

The King Ranch set out to study and design an IMAIS-compliant, electronic ID system for the ranch, and found it was less complicated than expected. When you have 60,000 head of cattle spread across hundreds of square miles of tough, South Texas range, a national plan to individually ID every animal to allow lifetime traceback in the event of an animal-health emergency could be a real case for consternation. But a fabled Texas ranch found such concern was mostly unwarranted from the practical side.
