Need for the Document

• The compensation program for the sacrifice of animals affected by disease in Brazil is a government initiative that provides financial compensation to livestock owners who are required to cull or slaughter animals as a result of disease outbreaks.

Information which might help

• When a contagious or notifiable disease is detected in animals, such as foot-and-mouth disease, avian influenza, or bovine tuberculosis, the government may issue directives to cull or slaughter the affected animals and those at risk of spreading the disease.
