ASF may have an immediate effect on trade, as the most recent outbreak in wild boar in Belgium has shown. Some of the EU’s trade partners do not recognise the regionalisation principle and 13 countries have suspended pork imports from Belgium; these include some of the main markets for EU pork: China, Japan, South Korea, the Philippines and Australia.

As a result, Belgian exporters will have to find new destinations for 60 % of their pigmeat exports, which account for 3 % of the country’s production.

The overall impact on EU trade is still limited, but the situation could change if ASF spreads to other major producing countries.
