Vets play a vital role in safeguarding the health and welfare of animals on Red Tractor farms. Their close cooperation with Red Tractor farmers is instrumental in ensuring that Red Tractor standards continue to be met and upheld. This vital partnership helps farmers demonstrate their compliance with the standards. It is raising the bar for animal welfare and farming practices, which underpins the trust processers and consumers have in Red Tractor.
Many Red Tractor producers are required to have reviews and documentation signed by their registered vet.
