In particular, implementing the direction of the Department of Agriculture and Environment of Lao Cai province on strengthening the prevention and control of animal diseases, the Station coordinated with communes to inspect and take samples of pigs and cows suspected of being infected. The results detected 6 samples positive for African swine fever, 2 samples positive for lumpy skin disease virus. As of August 28, 2025, 339 sick cattle had to be destroyed with a total weight of nearly 17.26 tons.

Tram Tau Agricultural Service and Support Station coordinated with Hanh Phuc Commune People's Committee to vaccinate livestock.

Faced with that situation, the Station mobilized all staff to the grassroots to coordinate with the Economic Department of the communes to spray 205 liters of chemicals, sprinkle 4,940 kg of lime powder to prevent the epidemic; together with the People's Committee of Hanh Phuc commune to set up a temporary quarantine checkpoint at Km 29, Provincial Road 174, and arrange livestock and veterinary staff to be on duty 24/7.

Up to now, the epidemic has been basically controlled, only concentrated in a few small outbreaks, with little possibility of spreading to other areas. The station also advised the People's Committees of communes to issue many documents directing the work of preventing and controlling livestock and poultry diseases in the area.
