The person named recorded a sire as "unknown" in his records submitted to ICBF as part of the 2021 scheme. As a result of this, a query was raised and the person named did not receive his Beef Data and Genomics Programme (BDGP) payment for 2021 because it was deemed the scheme requirements has not been met, specifically in relation to the use of a stock bull.

However in light of new information received from the person named, the Department has re-examined the case and will now make arrangements regarding his 2021 payment. The person named will be informed of this decision in writing.
