Animal Disposition Reporting System (ADRS)
This is an old revision of this page, as edited by SSchultz (talk | contribs) at 03:12, November 14, 2007. It may differ significantly from current revision.
The Animal Disposition Reporting System contains slaughter totals and disposition summaries for federally inspected livestock and poultry slaughter establishments. Each animal carcass is inspected for diseases and other conditions, which if present, may result in the animal being condemned as unfit for human consumption. If a carcass is condemned, the reason for condemnation, also referred to as the disposition, is recorded in the ADRS database.
