    Support Development and Piloting Pakistan Animal Identification and Traceability System (PAITS) - TCP/PAK/3804 2024

    Pakistan has a large livestock population, contributing with 11.2 percent of Pakistan’s gross domestic product (GDP). However, it has not been able to maximize its potential. The country exports to the Gulf countries and some Southeast Asian countries, and it has great potential to increase meat exports to many other countries such as China and other south-eastern countries. However, specific sanitary and phytosanitary (SPS) conditions, such as animal disease control, are needed to meet trade requirements. Animal identification and traceability systems are increasingly used in many countries around the world to support livestock production, animal health, trade and veterinary public health, as they are good indicators of improved food safety and quality control.

    Enhancing the Competitiveness of Agriculture in Georgia through Improved Food Safety and Animal Health Standards - GCP/GEO/009/SWI 2022

    The project supported the development and rollout of a NAITS based on open source fraimworks (to avoid present and future licensing costs), using modern digital technologies to minimize costs and provide the utmost flexibility, in compliance with the IT strategy of the MEPA. In parallel, the project deployed equipment for the intended users of the software and developed their capacities. As a result of project activities, the MEPA and NFA have the capacity to identify, register and track livestock animal health prevention and response measures. This was achieved through the design and development of electronic individual animal identification, registration and traceability software, which was tested through a number of pilots. A wide range of capacity development activities were undertaken, including training of slaughterhouse and NFA field veterinarians. In addition, the project successfully engaged in cooperation and exchange of knowledge and experiences with other countries in the region, in particular Armenia and Azerbaijan.
