      We are now at 10 nights of frost, 6 were below -2 or -3, one at -6 and the wopper at -10c . 10% of normal precip. Agreed , normal my ass... This is the same for a huge area.

            Our PID # in Alberta is attached to our land location. I was surprised last week when I picked up a bottle of Dettol and the UFA asked for my PID, since it has a DIN (Drug Identification #). The vet has not asked yet. I am sure it is a number I will have to learn as there is a spot for it on the livestock manifest.
            I am not sure why we can't use the CLTS premise ID, but our history in AB is to continually reinvent the wheel...

              Is there any indication that the PID number is going to find increasing use in the identification of cattle movements? At present the PID number line sits unused on the AB livestock manifest when you ship cattle to auction, I've never filled mine in - or been asked to.

              I was in UFA recently and when paying for my purchases was asked for my PID number with the comment that they would only ask for it once - presumably to associate it with my UFA account number. I was buying some packs of electrolyte so assume that is what triggered the request not the water pipe fittings I picked up at the same time.

                    "Big Brother" wants to know WHAT you bought and WHERE you bought it as they want to "track" your purchases of livestock and anything connected to their health, sale, disease treatment and movement to and from pasture.

                    It's just Alberta's version of the KGB...don't worry about it.

                    Its a wonder they don't have drones looking over the countryside looking for infractions of their PID regulations.

                    All of this is for potential tracing of diseased animals...so they say, so its good but it does infringe on our "Free Enterprise" philosophy we were brought up with.

                      In a few days they will tell us that this has been the second or third warmest May that Saskatoon or Regina have ever had.
