The Australian Standards for the Export of Livestock (ASEL) is an Australian Government regulation which sets the standards for the Australian livestock export trade. ASEL covers the livestock export supply chain from the sourcing of livestock through to their delivery in an overseas country. The electronic ASEL handbook application (app) provides participants in the livestock export supply chain with a comprehensive and convenient mobile resource which makes the standards readily accessible wherever they are – whether on a farm, a vessel or in the office. The information can be accessed through a standards menu, species menu or search function and a comprehensive in-built calculator, derived from the formulas and requirements within ASEL, enables the timely estimation of stocking densities, fodder, water and bedding (if applicable) requirements for exports by sea.

The ASEL Handbook App is brought to you by the Australian Livestock Export Corporation (LiveCorp) and Meat & Livestock Australia (MLA), the marketing and RD&E service companies for Australia’s red meat and livestock industry.
