Yen Bai proactively prevents diseases in livestock.
Nghia Lo Town (Yen Bai) has increased propaganda and encouraged livestock farmers to apply disease prevention measures such as vaccination, reporting disease situations, and cleaning barns.
At the beginning of the year, African swine fever appeared in some areas of the province. To ensure the safety of livestock, the Town People's Committee requested people to only buy breeding animals from sources with clear origins.
During the livestock farming process, people are required to strictly comply with regulations on disease prevention, including regular vaccination and closely monitoring the disease situation to coordinate with local authorities to promptly handle any signs of disease.
