Beef & Lamb
Residency Calculator
The Red Tractor Beef and Lamb scheme requires beef animals to be held on an assured holding for at least 90 days and sheep at least 60 days before the stock can be described, and thus sold as farm assured.
The residency calculator works to determine if the period has been met and/or the date when the required residency period would be completed.
Select either beef or lamb from the dropdown box to determine the correct timelines for your livestock.
Note: The day of arrival on the holding does not count as part of the residency period. The start date entered should be the day after the animals arrived on the farm.
