African swine fever has been detected in a voivodeship where the disease had not been diagnosed this year.

Russia's leading pork producer, Miratorg, reported an ASF outbreak on a farm with over 13,000 pigs.

This decision facilitates the sale of pork and the purchase of pigs in slaughterhouses again.

As of October 18, the disease has been found on as many as 112 swine farms.

The General Secretariat of the Andean Community and the Permanent Veterinary Committee of the Southern Cone have prepared a "Joint declaration on the reintroduction of African Swine fever to the American continent."

This is the first evidence of African swine fever outside the district of Görlitz in the State of Saxony.

The framework has been approved to detect, contain, and prevent African swine fever in the Americas.

According to the head of the Ministry of Agriculture, the number of ASF outbreaks in the country is down from last year, but the risk of disease spread remains.

As of October 1, the state of Brandenburg will pay €150 for each wild boar hunted in the ASF restricted areas.

The arrangement allows for the safe trade of swine products from disease-free zones in Canada in the event of an ASF outbreak.

Previously, examining all wild boar hunted in good health was only mandatory in the districts of Görlitz and Bautzen, but this has now been extended to the districts of Meissen and Saxon Switzerland-Eastern Ore Mountains as well as to the state capital Dresden.

This year ASF cases have already surpassed the total for 2020. Even so, the pig industry is expected to see growth.
