Did you know that current Federal Humane Transport Records (HTR) regulations are in full effect today? This applies to all transporters of livestock within Canada.

HTR requires the entry of 37 different data elements for every livestock movement. By entering trailer / conveyance and other common information in your profile, this information can be pre-populated for every livestock movement, saving valuable time and effort.

Although many don't realize it, new Federal regulations are coming for livestock Identification and Traceability in Canada:

The MyLivestock digital platform provides a Turn-Key, one stop shop for Canadian livestock operators to not only meet the current and upcoming federal regulations, but bridge the gap between Canadian Provincial jurisdictions, in one unified, first of it's kind platform.

For the cost of a couple of cups of coffee per month, MyLivestock makes it easy to meet the current challenges of regulatory demands on the industry. Additional, non-regulatory features, such as full herd management will come online in subsequent phases.

MyLivestock provides the livestock industry with the tools to meet industry needs, including regulations. But, the platform is meant to provide an easy to use tool, and does not police or enforce reporting - that's up to you to opt in or not!


You can sign up today for a free 3 month trial.

  2. Choose your type - Livestock operator or Transporter
  3. Sign up as an Individual (one user only) or as an Organization (Supports multiple users)

Individual accounts

Intended for producers, individual accounts get a single user account for their livestock operation.

Example: Report livestock movements on behalf of "John Smith".


Organization accounts

Intended for large producers, corporations, dealers, feedlots or abattoirs, organization accounts get multiple user accounts to manage their operation.

When registering as an organization you choose a short unique organization code. This is used to group all of your users and data under a single organization.

Organizations have access to full user management features such as creating users, assigning roles, and managing organization information.

Example: Multiple users can report livestock movements on behalf of "JS Livestock Inc."


Which type of account should I choose?

If you answer yes to any of the following questions, we recommend registering as an organization.

  • Do you operate under a business name?
  • Will you need to create user accounts for other family members or employees, now or in the future?
  • Will you have more than 100 livestock movements in a year?
  • Is your livestock operation incorporated?

MyLivestock will notify you via email one month prior to the expiration of your trial subscription. If you do not purchase a subscription plan, your subscription will be updated based on whether you are registered as an Individual or an Organization/Business, and you will receive another email notification.


You can always upgrade your plan from the Subscription page under the Administration menu to gain access to more features within MyLivestock.

Individual accounts will be updated to the Basic plan, which is free and allows for 5 movements per year.

In order to renew your Saskatchewan brand, you must first register as an Individual or Organization livestock operator in MyLivestock. Once registered and logged in, you will then link your Livestock Services of Saskatchewan (LSS) producer number to your MyLivestock account. This can be done as part of the initial setup process from your dashboard, or can be added by clicking the settings gear icon on your dashboard, if you have already completed your setup.

To link your producer number as part of your initial dashboard setup, you will need to select "Link Your Provincial Account" in step 3. On step 4 you select Producer as the account type, enter your 6 digit LSS producer number, and accept the LSS terms of use.
