Disclaimer: The health information above is as supplied by or on behalf of the breeder. The health status of individual animals may differ from the herd declaration. The responsibility for the accuracy of the information rests solely with the breeder and not The Hereford Cattle Society.

The following table sets out the new classifications for Johnes Disease in respect of those herds belonging to a CHeCS approved Herd Health Scheme:STATUS

DEFINITION

Level 1:

This is directly equivalent to the previous CheCS Accredited free status. Level 1 status is associated with the lowest risk source when buying in stock. Health plan required.

Level 2:

Herds with Level 2 status have had one or two clear consecutive herd tests. Health plan required.

Level 3:

Herds with Level 3 status have reactors identified at the annual herd test, but these are no more than 3% of the animals tested. Health plan required.

Level 4:

Herds with Level 4 status have reactors identified at the annual herd test, and these amount to more than 3% of the animals tested. Health plan required.

Level 5:

Any herd that is not carrying out the required testing or does not have a suitable health plan in place automatically falls into this category. Level 5 status is considered to be the greatest risk source when buying in stock.
