Hanoi establishes centralized pig slaughterhouse

Along with that, functional departments and branches coordinate with local authorities to review and guide herd restoration, thereby completing the planning of concentrated livestock farms far from residential areas and having mechanisms to encourage people and businesses to invest in closed-loop livestock farming models and biosafety livestock farming.

Localities, based on the actual situation, should effectively implement disease prevention and control and destroy infected pigs. The Department of Agriculture and Environment should provide specific instructions to localities on disease prevention and control in livestock and poultry farming; the Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism should strengthen extensive propaganda to raise awareness and responsibility of people and farming households about the risk of disease spread, the significance of reporting and handling outbreaks according to regulations. Currently, African swine fever has occurred in 23 communes and 155 villages in Hanoi with 490 farming households affected. The total number of pigs forced to be destroyed is 10,592, with a destroyed weight of more than 662,690 kg.
