Authorized Local Agents (ALAs)

ALA work on the field and are the ones that do tagging, issue movement permits, collect tags from BAHA for reduction. ALAs are responsible of performing livestock identification for all the animals they tag, and doing the livestock reduction for the tags they collect from BAHA (ending of each month) and issue movement permits to farmers. ALAs also collect data from farmers when preparing reports for flooding, drought or any other disasters that may affect the cattle industry. Data is entered into the BLR on a daily basis.
