NDA issues Import Order for rodeo cattle

Nebraska

In an ongoing effort to help protect the health of Nebraska's livestock, the Nebraska Department of Agriculture has issued an Import Order for rodeo cattle entering Nebraska.

The Order requires tuberculosis testing be conducted on all cattle being imported into Nebraska for rodeos, timed events, or team events.

The Import Order is in addition to the current Nebraska Animal Importation Act. Individuals who are planning to import cattle into the state should contact the NDA, Bureau of Animal Industry, at 800-572-2437 for more information.

The complete Import Order can be found on the NDA website at www.agr.ne.gov, under Animal Health.
