In support of the repeal of 2VAC5-140-140 and its replacement with 2 VAC 5-141
 

Not only do out of state Alpaca farms not want to attend Virginia shows but they also do not want the added expense for the testing to send their Alpacas to Virginia for breeding. Changing the required testing would increase the revenue our Virginia farms and Shows would receive.
