The Alberta Swine Traceability System is a tool designed to support food safety and disease mitigation. To meet the goals of the traceability system the participation of everyone in the value chain, including producers, transporters and abattoirs, is required. The more participants reporting into the system, the stronger and more effective the system becomes.
Reporting and submitting Alberta Pork swine manifests has been mandatory for farm-to-slaughter movements since December 1, 2011. Full-movement requirements came into effect, both nationally and provincially, on July 1, 2014. If you are not submitting swine manifests for swine received, please contact the Alberta Pork office toll free at 1-877-247-7675 (PORK) to receive swine manifests at no charge.
It is the responsibility of the receiver to report and submit the swine manifest for movements received within Alberta. Movement reporting is as simple as completing the appropriate portion of the swine manifest and faxing the top white copy to 1-888-715-4563. (This number is located on every Alberta Pork manifest towards the bottom of the page.) Movements can also be submitted through email to traceability@albertapork.com.
