Primary Industries Minister Tim Mulherin says the Radio Frequency Identification Devices (RFID) might assist the industry to reopen access to vital international markets.

"Currently kangaroo harvesters use a paper-based traceability system, but overseas markets, including the EU and Russia are demanding a more rigorous, verifiable, tamper-proof approach," Mr Mulherin said.

When in Russia recently Premier Anna Bligh met with Russia's Acting Minister for Agriculture, Oleg Aldoshin, and discussed the temporary suspension of Australian kangaroo meat exports and the impact it is having across regional Queensl and.

The Russian authorities indicated that significant change will need to be evident before trade can recommence.

"Due consideration has been given to the Russian requirements and steps are being taken to ensure that Queensland product will meet international standards," Mr Mulherin said.

he said the new RFID technology can provide greater efficiencies for harvesters and processors with improved traceability of product.

"We're expediting the trial of electronic tracing technology compared to paper based traceability systems," he said.

"While there is still some testing and analysis to do, the technology would appear to have potential."

Verifiable tamperproof tagging was one of many issues discussed in the Kangaroo Industry Stakeholder Forums for field operators, according to the QPI&F.

At the forums, Australian Quarantine and Inspection Service (AQIS), the Department of Environment and Resource Management (DERM), SFPQ, QPIF and processors outlined changes needed to hopefully restore market access.

Key issues discussed at the forums included requirements for harvester and field depot reaccreditation.

Training, technology for time and temperature verification of the product along the supply chain, as well as product tagging and traceability options were also discussed.

The Kangaroo Industry Association of Australia (KIAA) also provided harvesters with a presentation on best practice for their industry.

Harvesters requested a greater level of communication within the industry and acknowledged that the forums are a step in the right direction.
