What is BIXS?
For years, producers said they would like to receive information to help them genetically improve their herds, to improve feeding and animal health practices, and to reduce costs. The Beef InfoXchange System (BIXS) was designed to do just that - and more.
In short, BIXS is:
- a voluntary national cattle and carcass information exchange system that will improve communications and information sharing across the beef chain and a
- stand-alone secure database and information analysis program based on individual animal RFID tag identifiers tool within the overall CBA program.
