Basically, it is a nationwide registration system for animals and the sites where they are kept. It has been causing a major uproar within the farming community, as it is a burden to small farmers, among others.<\/p>\n<p>It will affect you too if you keep any sort of farm animals such as chickens, sheep, goats, horses, etc.\u2014but if you do, you undoubtedly already know this.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ve been preparing a piece on this subject, but in the process we came across this video that gives you an excellent summary of what\u2019s involved. So we thought we\u2019d provide a video introduction, then look to converting our investigative reporting to a background article or editorial.<\/p>\n<p>Most of our readers have probably never heard of NAIS. If you fall into that category, the video below will be a real eye-opener. The presenter is Linda Faillace, author of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B00128Z21G?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=techismo-20&amp;link_code=as3&amp;camp=211189&amp;creative=373489&amp;creativeASIN=B00128Z21G\">Mad Sheep:The True Story Behind the USDA\u2019s War on a Family Farm<\/a><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"border: medium none  ! important; margin: 0px ! important;\" src=\"http:\/\/www.assoc-amazon.com\/e\/ir?t=techismo-20&amp;l=as2&amp;o=1&amp;a=B00128Z21G\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" \/>, who knows a thing or two about dealing with the USDA as a small farmer.<\/p>\n<p><object classid=\"clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000\" width=\"480\" height=\"390\" codebase=\"http:\/\/download.macromedia.com\/pub\/shockwave\/cabs\/flash\/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0\"><param name=\"src\" value=\"http:\/\/blip.tv\/play\/Ad3YIIaxCA\" \/><param name=\"allowfullscreen\" value=\"true\" \/><embed type=\"application\/x-shockwave-flash\" width=\"480\" height=\"390\" src=\"http:\/\/blip.tv\/play\/Ad3YIIaxCA\" allowfullscreen=\"true\"><\/embed><\/object><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>National Animal Identification System (NAIS) Written by: Bill Suydam, Editor, Health Spectator X Hello!
