The epidemic continues to be a major impact factor.

According to the Department of Animal Husbandry, Veterinary and Fisheries of Son La province, since the beginning of the year, African swine fever has broken out in 263 groups and villages of 44 communes, causing more than 8,200 pigs - equivalent to 420 tons - to be destroyed, and to date there are still 37 outbreaks that have not been controlled.

Mr. Nguyen Ngoc Toan, Head of the Sub-Department, said that the unit is coordinating with localities to count the pig herd, thereby planning to vaccinate about 25,000 healthy pigs aged 4 weeks and older. However, vaccination is not carried out in epidemic areas or areas threatened by epidemics.

In addition, 7,000 liters of chemicals will be distributed to periodically disinfect the environment to limit pathogens. Livestock farmers are required to comply with the "5 no" measures: "no hiding the epidemic, no buying or transporting sick pigs, no dumping of pig carcasses into the environment, no use of untreated leftover food, and no spreading of the epidemic".

At the same time, sanitation activities, sprinkling lime powder, disinfecting barns and strictly controlling people and vehicles entering and exiting the livestock area are also being carried out.
