Abstract: In recent years, digital innovations have become widespread in the agro-industrial complex and in the agricultural business. The conversion of veterinary documentation, the system of animal registration and food safety control into digital format is an urgent task for the veterinary medicine of Kazakhstan. The introduction of digital technologies is necessary to process huge amounts of valuable information that remain unused in the control of the epizootic situation and food safety. Veterinary documentation is still kept on paper, which takes a lot of time. Manual entry of primary information creates numerous errors and inaccuracies and negatively affects the completeness of the information, making it impossible to keep operational statistics when monitoring the epizootic situation. The purpose of this work is to develop a digital platform with a mobile application that allows you to automate the processes of generating and transferring information about animals to the ILI database (Identification of Farm Animals), free practical veterinary workers from the shaft of paperwork, and raise work to control the epizootic situation to a qualitatively new level. and safety of livestock products, promptly monitor the movement of livestock across the country, especially from the vaccination zone to clean zones. The materials of the study are legal documentation, statistical indicators of animal husbandry in the Akkol district of the Akmola region, operational veterinary reporting. The research methods were based on the generalization of information obtained as a result of a comparative analysis of the time spent using the developed mobile application and the current system for identifying farm animals during veterinary activities. A digital platform has been developed - a mobile application "Mal Derek", which ensures the quality and reliability of primary material entered into the veterinary database automatically and in digital format. The author's certificate for this computer program has been received. Work was carried out to test the functionality of the mobile application "Mal Derek" in the Akkol district of the Akmola region with the participation of veterinary specialists. Automating the process of transferring information about animals from local veterinary specialists to veterinary laboratories, to the laboratory of veterinary and sanitary examination of markets and trade organizations, to enterprises for the processing of animal products, as well as to the central database, opens up new possibilities for solving the problem of ensuring the safety of animal products.
