Breeding cattle must be officially identified before being sold.
A buyer of breeding cattle for slaughter at a community sale must sign an affidavit of slaughter that certifies that the cattle will be moved directly from the community sale to a state-federal approved livestock auction market, a slaughter-only handling facility, or a designated slaughter establishment with no diversion to farm or ranch.
