Ensuring contact for horse owners in times of need

Victorian horse owners are being asked to take a simple step for a special friend and register for a Property Identification Code (PIC).

Agriculture Victoria Manager Livestock Traceability Ben Fahy said PICs provided horse owners an extra level of protection during emergencies.

'If there's a flood, fire or disease outbreak, we may need to reach out with concerns specific to your animals, or for emergency relief and recovery activities within an impacted area,' Mr Fahy said.
