	abstract = {Traceability is rapidly becoming a way of doing business in the food industry. Companies have a choice of regarding it as a compliance requirement or to utilise the newly available technologies to capture data regarding full supply chain and product attributes. By having the relevant data available it can be analysed to unlock previously unavailable information regarding business processes and attributes while providing compliance traceability by default. Depending on this choice, traceability can either be a compliance cost or it can add value to an enterprise.

	abstract = {With the business case for a national animal identification system due in July 2005, it is appropriate to take stock  and to see where New Zealand (NZ) and other countries are at with animal and full  supply chain traceability.  The  objective should be to learn and contribute to the outcome.  Full supply chain traceability is on the horizon, NZ needs to  be proactive and valuable lessons are available particularly from the United Kingdom (UK) and Canadian experiences.  The preferred position seems to be one where government plays a leading role without burdening the industry with yet  another set of legislative requirements.   For this to work effectively, the industry has to  commit to traceability, to go  beyond ordinary compliance type applications and to use it as a differentiator in the market place.  Traceability is not  going to go away, and as the requirements will continue to increase around the world, the best option is to embrace it.},
