Maedi Visna (MV) Accreditation

About the Scheme - The Scheme is open nationally (UK) to flock masters who undertake to abide by the rules and conditions of membership. MV accredited sheep must be kept seperately from non accredited sheep at all times. Membership is ultimately at the discretion of SAC Veterinary Services.

A flock can become MV accredited when it:

• Passes two qualifying blood tests between 6 and 12 months apart
• Has certification from a vet that the holding can comply with scheme rules and conditions
• Once MV accredited, a proportion of the flock is blood tested one year later and then every two years and the member is issued with certificates of status for selling or moving scheme sheep. After being accredited for 3 years, flocks that do not have non-accredited sheep can test at 3 year intervals. Shows and sales are licenced to provide space for MV accredited sheep.

EXPORT - CERTIFICATE NEWS

It has come to light that some exporters to Europe (currently Estonia) require an upgraded pedigree certificate for rams and a certificate for females.  The Society office can produce these documents subject to the pedigree information held on the database.  When selling sheep to these buyers, it is suggested you know about this as in some cases the Society cannot automatically provide the required document.  It is recommended that you speak to Gwenda or Heather to ascertain more information and the timescale involved if you receive such enquiries.  At busy times in the office it may take several weeks to produce these.  Please allow for this when ordering.  There is a charge of £5+ Vat per certificate.

Due to limited resources in the office we can only produce these certificates once it is known the animals will be going to relevant destination (i.e. Estonia at present).
