Goat trading between states will become easier with the introduction of a National Goat Health Statement, according to Goat Industry Council of Australia's president Steve Roots.
Mr Roots said the statement has been developed by the industry to bring a "new level of assurance for producers involved with the trading of goats".
"There is always a risk involved when buying and selling goats and this statement will eliminate some of that risk for producers as it will be an important part of the transaction as it provides the health status of the goats they intend to trade," Mr Roots said.
"This statement will take effect from 1 February 2009 and introduces new measures for minimising the spread of disease from farm to farm or even state to state."
