Why this matters
USDA treats bonding, prompt payment, and suspensions as real seller-protection issues.
USDA states that dealers and market agencies buying on commission must maintain bonds that protect livestock sellers, and that payment for livestock purchases is generally due by the close of the next business day. USDA also publishes a suspension list and warns that suspended businesses may present added risk.
Dealer & buying-on-commission rules
Bonding, prompt-payment, registration, and annual-report responsibilities.
Clause 1 bonding and custodial-account responsibilities for commission markets.

Mission
Make public livestock records easier to use before a transaction.
Our mission is to make USDA P&S evidence easier to find, easier to understand, and easier to automate without hiding uncertainty or overstating what the data proves.
Important: This is an independent factual USDA-record lookup, not a credit score, legal determination, recommendation, or guarantee of payment. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by USDA.
Questions
Built to be clear about both the evidence and its limits.
Is this an official USDA website?
No. Livestock Counterparty Guard is an independent tool that transforms public USDA AMS Packers & Stockyards records into a faster structured lookup. Official USDA sources remain the authority.
Does a MATCH mean the business is safe?
No. A match means the supplied name matched supported USDA records. It is not a credit rating, recommendation, legal conclusion, or guarantee of payment.
What if there are several similar names?
The system surfaces multiple possible matches instead of silently selecting a fuzzy best guess.
How current is the information?
Every result includes source dates. Different USDA lists can carry different official dates, so the service preserves those dates rather than presenting all sources as equally current.
Can a business check hundreds of counterparties?
Yes. In Apify Console, paste up to 1,000 businesses one per line, optionally adding a state after a | character. API users can submit the structured batch format instead.
