DA Launches Gov't-Controlled ASF Vaccination in Non-Red Zones to Combat Swine Fever

pna

The Department of Agriculture (DA) announced the rollout of its government-controlled African swine fever (ASF) vaccination program in non-red zones, areas with no active ASF cases. This move aims to accelerate the vaccination implementation, ensuring a swift and effective response to the swine fever outbreak. By targeting non-red zones, the DA hopes to prevent the spread of ASF and protect the local swine industry. With the help of this program, the country can mitigate the economic impact of the disease and promote a healthier pig population, ultimately supporting the agriculture sector and food security efforts.
