For the first time, all English pig-keepers will be able to join the British Pig Health Scheme — now renamed the BPEX Pig Health Scheme — for free. Previously there has been an annual charge for the abattoir carcase-vetting regime.

From July English pig producers will be registered free of charge for carcase information from the BPEX Pig Health Scheme when they sign up to any of the regional health programmes.

The £50 annual membership fee has been scrapped. The scheme has specialist pig vets checking carcases for a range of pig health conditions in abattoirs across England.
