Spanish term

Tropas (please see context)

Spanish to English Tech/Engineering Manufacturing GMP Manual
GMP Manual (Meat-packing company):

"... el operario nunca podrá alojar dos tropas en un mismo corral, excepto que el SIV autorice tal situación, mientras que Sí, está permitido dividir una tropa en dos o más corrales para poder cumplir con el punto b".

¿A qué TROPAS hace referencia? ¿cómo se agrupan los animales en un frigorífico una vez realizada la descarga del camión, cuando deben transportarse a corrales?

Gracias.

Herd(s) (of cattle)

ELABORACIÓN Y CALIDAD
Una vez en nuestra planta se continúa con el sistema de trazabilidad iniciado en los frigoríficos faenadores. Es por ello que cada tropa es seguida individualmente hasta llegar al producto final, el que cuenta con la referencia indicativa de la tropa a la que pertenece.

ELABORATION AND QUALITY
Once in our plant, the system of traceability begun in the slaughter houses is continued. In this way each herd of cattle is monitored on an individual basis until it reaches the final stage of finished product, where it carries the reference number of the herd from which it was obtained.

batches

In the animal husbandry texts that I work on, the livestock arrive at the slaughterhouse in batches, which are usually separated to avoid the spread of infections.
"Herd" is rebaño/manada, which I see as a bigger grouping than the batches usually transported.
Example sentence:

Sheep are normally kept in batches (batches of up to 50 sheep are feasible) in large pens...

Qatar received the first batch of cows in the middle of this month.

I really appreciate the "agree". Producers/farmers rarely ship a whole "herd" at a time.
