livestock market regulation

Livestock market regulation involves rules and oversight to ensure fair trade, quality standards, and ethical practices in buying and selling animals like cattle, pigs, and sheep. Authorities set guidelines to prevent fraud, protect producers and consumers, and promote transparency. These regulations may include health and safety standards, proper weighing and pricing procedures, and conditions for fair competition. By overseeing the livestock markets, regulators help maintain trust, ensure animal welfare, and support a stable, efficient agricultural economy.
