| Murgen ?but the RFID tags (mandatory by the end of 2006) are working great! Is this per each package of beef leaving the packing plant or is this the Canadian cattle RFID tag system?

MRJ,
I have viewed Harris from the periphey for awhile. Doesn't surprise me that they would be the first ones in line. It goes along with a lot of what I see out here in the west, Successful Branded Beef programs often started by producers. They would likely have most of the parts in place to successfully partner with Japanese companies. Age verification wouldn't be a problem and they have worked on consistent quality beef for quite awhile.
Other programs include Oregon Natural Beef and Painted Hills....These programs tend to focus on consistency and quality, while scripting thier story very well to consumers,

I believe it is highly likely there are a great number of such programs across the country which have long ago put into place the requirements necessary for identification and age/source verification and quality assurance programs into the bargain. They are the forward thinking cattle producers and well deserve the returns on their investments.
