Food and Agricultural Code·California

AI SummaryVerified

This law says you must let a dairy calf that the state says needs a vaccine and ID tag go to get that vaccine; you can't say no.

Key Takeaways

•If a dairy calf is required to be vaccinated and tagged, you must let it be vaccinated.
•Refusing to have the calf vaccinated is illegal.
•The rule applies to all dairy calves covered by the chapter.

Example

A dairy farmer has a newborn calf that the state requires to get a vaccine and ear tag, but the farmer refuses to bring the calf to the vet.

Because the law says you can't refuse, the farmer would be breaking the law by keeping the calf from being vaccinated and identified.
