In a ground breaking stride toward modernizing livestock management, Pakistan Animal Identification and Traceability System (PAITS), a sophisticated national database, has been developed to promote livestock and also plug chances of animals theft.

In regions where the specter of animal theft looms large, introduction of Pakistan Animal Identification and Traceability System (PAITS) is not less than a blessing for cattle farmers. The initiative stands as a beacon of hope for farmers grappling with the pervasive threat of theft, offering a comprehensive solution to fortify the nations important sector of livestock, said Deputy Director Livestock Dr Jamshaid Akhtar while talking to media. The stolen animals could easily be traced after registration, he added.

He added, PAITS emerges as a multifaceted solution to address a spectrum of challenges inherent in traditional livestock management practices. At its core, the system serves as a comprehensive repository of real-time data, cataloging vital information pertaining to livestock, their proprietors, and the premises they inhabit.

Dr Jamshaid Akhtar, underscored the pivotal role of PAITS in streamlining registration processes, herd management, and the surveillance of animal movements. Beyond its administrative functions, PAITS also helpful as it is best tool in fortifying the nations biosecurity apparatus. By facilitating epidemic prevention measures, the system can fortify the resilience of Pakistan’s livestock sector against disease outbreaks. Dr. Akhtar also emphasized the systems role in bolstering animal exports and imports, instilling confidence in international trade partners through robust traceability mechanisms. The benefits of PAITS extend far beyond the realms of regulatory compliance, he also hinted. Through its seamless integration with vaccination protocols, the system empowers farmers to safeguard the health and well-being of their livestock with unparalleled efficacy.
