On the morning of November 21, the Department of Animal Husbandry, Veterinary and Fisheries held an interdisciplinary meeting to strengthen the prevention of African swine fever (ASF) in the province.

According to a report by the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development, since the beginning of the year, the country has detected 1,452 ASF outbreaks in 1,103 communes of 48 provinces and cities, with 81,030 pigs having to be destroyed, 2.6 times higher than the same period in 2023. However, in the province, since the beginning of 2024, no ASF cases have been recorded.

At the meeting, the relevant departments discussed and proposed coordinated solutions to prevent and combat ASF. The relevant departments will increase patrols and controls to prevent and strictly handle those who illegally transport pigs and pig products from other provinces to Binh Duong. At the same time, the departments will inspect and strictly handle cases of trading and transporting sick pigs, pigs of unknown origin or pigs that have not been quarantined.

Mr. Tran Phu Cuong, Head of the provincial Department of Animal Health and Aquaculture, emphasized that although there has been no outbreak of ASF in the province, sectors and localities must still proactively implement strict control measures to prevent the spread of the disease. He also asked farmers to regularly monitor and supervise pig herds and apply safe and effective farming measures.
