Animal Identification
Countryside Services was established in 1998 and is a fully owned subsidiary of the Ulster Farmers Union.
The Animal Identification aspect of the business started in Northern Ireland becoming the leading supplier in the market. In 2008 we purchased the animal identification business of Earlsmere ID based in Barnsley S Yorkshire. The Animal Identification part of the business operates in all areas of these islands.
In 2008 the business signed a distribution agreement with Destron Fearing a division of the US company Digital Angel (DIGA) for its extensive range of visual and electronic identification products.
Earlsmere Ltd based in Barnsley started the Livestock Identification business in the 1990's and this part of the business was transferred to Countryside Ltd. in March 2009. Earlsmere Ltd continues to trade in identification systems, bar code labels and vibration monitoring systems. They are an independent company - for more details please visit their website
