beasts—but registering the animals involves a mountain of paperwork. Now

Technology of Glasgow has just launched a new online service which allows
British farmers to register their herds on the Internet. The service, called
Elite Traceability, makes it possible to trace the movement and treatment of an
animal throughout its life. Intelligent software warns the user of any errors
they might key in.
