Farmers are requested to have all the necessary FANMEAT farm records available on farm in the Farm File (visit: http://agrialert.blogspot.com/2012/07/traceability-important-fanmeat-farm.html  for more detail on required records). These records are part of the Farm Assured Namibian Meat Scheme (FANMEAT) that enables Namibian producers to comply with  international "farm to fork" trace-ability requirements for the export of red meat.
