AgInfoLink's Process Verified Program



Program Description
AgInfoLink offers information verification services to the livestock industry. AgInfoLink verification services can provide an auditable information trail to verify a number of industry requirements and marketing claims. Verification specifically for age and source is provided through AgInfoLink’s USDA-approved Processed Verification Program (PVP).

AgInfoLink delivers these verification services through its approved Verification Partners (see Verification Partners). These partners, under the training and oversight of AgInfoLink, provide customer enrollment, training, and auditing to verify claims.

AgInfoLink’s Process Verification Program approval gives customers the opportunity and flexibility to participate in a wide variety of marketing channels. They can collect a number of data points in order to substantiate age and source verification. Data collection may occur with any of AgInfoLink’s traceability tools and through third party systems.

For more information on AgInfoLink Verification Services, contact AgInfoLink or any of the approved Verification Partners.
