New Mexico. Cattle Sanitary Board
Biographical notes:
The New Mexico Cattle Sanitary Board oversees the treatment of livestock in farms, especially transportation, branding, slaughter and conditions of upkeep. Established on February 10, 1887, the Board was to adopt and enforce quarantine rules and regulations for the control of infectious diseases affecting cattle. In 1891, the legislature expanded the duties of the Board to include brand inspection of all stock leaving the territory or slaughtered within its borders. In 1967, both the Cattle Sanitary Board and the Sheep Sanitary Board were combined to form the Livestock Board. The purpose of the joint Board is to exercise general supervision over the livestock interests of the state, to protect the industry from theft and contagious and infectious diseases, and to protect the public from diseased and unwholesome meat and meat products.
