MLA Red Meat Data Reporting and Feedback Data Standards Development Project Survey
MLA have undertaken a project that is focused on Red Meat Industry Data Reporting and Feedback Data Standards as part of the industry drive to deliver productivity uplift for the Australian red meat Industry.
The first step for this project is a process of identifying and cataloguing the current industry collected data and current feedback in use across industry to create a current industry data position.
The next step is to use the current industry feedback and data position to build proposed data models based on existing industry feedback such as AUS-MEAT language. The proposed data model includes consideration of emerging yield, environmental, sustainability and animal welfare data sets. This assists with processors to work towards better utilise new and emerging traits and to allow for seamless interchange of data. This is critical for mapping and development of emerging technologies and third-party providers with the emergence of new systems and tools.
The project is a whole of the red meat industry project working through the Red Meat Supply Chain Committee (RMSCC) with reporting to the Australian Meat Industry Language and Standards Committee (AMILSC) for endorsement of any project outcomes. This survey is being conducted by the Red Meat Supply Chain Committee (RMSCC) which reports to the Australian Meat Industry Language and Standards Committee(AMILSC) on industry program and project activities related to information standards along the red meat supply chain.
Efficient, accurate and consistence information moving along the supply chain is a fundamental requirement for improving productivity within the Australian red meat industry. There are much to gain by having and adopting good data standards along the red meat industry as has been demonstrated by other industries.
Consultation and industry input are core requirements for success for the development of good Data Reporting and Feedback Data Standards.
Industry parties that create, consume or have any interest in Red Meat Data Reporting and Feedback Data are encouraged to share their views to help inform and drive the direction of the development of these standards.
You will be contacted after you submit a survey response as a follow up and for you to be able to provide more detailed information.
