painokirjattu

Painokirjattu is a Finnish term that translates to "weighed" or "registered by weight." It is most commonly used in the context of animals, particularly livestock. When an animal is painokirjattu, it means its weight has been officially recorded, often for purposes of sale, breeding, or health monitoring. This process typically involves using a specialized weighing scale designed for animals. The recorded weight provides important data for farmers and veterinarians to assess an animal's growth, nutritional status, and overall health. It can also be a crucial factor in determining the value of an animal when it is sold. The term emphasizes the act of measurement and official recording, distinguishing it from a simple estimation of weight. In some agricultural systems, a painokirjattu status might be a requirement for participation in certain markets or programs.
