Access to LPA eNVD
LPA eNVDs are accepted by police and government as legal and compliant livestock movement documents. Creating eNVDs through the web platform or app is quick and free to use for all LPA-accredited producers. The system keeps all your livestock movement records accessible online, and allows receivers and transporters who also use eNVDs to obtain their copies instantly. eNVDs can be shared with anyone, regardless of their digital readiness. Learn more about how to share eNVDs with transporters and receivers, and creating digital consignments for your next livestock movement.
LPA Mandatory and Voluntary Modules
Being LPA accredited means you have access to opt in to LPA voluntary modules if seeking to provide additional assurances or meet different marketing requirements. If you participate in a voluntary module or programs like Meat Standards Australia (MSA) you will renew these at the same time as your LPA accreditation keeping the renewal process streamlined.
Download your personalised recommendations report
A personalised Recommendation Report will be made available to you on completion of LPA accreditation and renewal. The report is based on the answers provided during the Self-Assessment and can be used to help you identify areas for improvement or in meeting the LPA requirements. Recommendation Reports include guidance and access to resources which can supporting you in producing safe, high quality and ethically produced red meat.
