Romania’s pork industry continues to struggle with African swine fever (ASF). According to Romania’s National Sanitary Veterinary and Food Safety Authority (NSVFSA), there are currently about 600 active cases in backyard farms, four outbreaks in commercial holdings, and about 1,800 cases in wild boars. Since it first appeared in 2017, Romania has confirmed over 1,500 ASF detections. As the virus has spread, the pork industry continues to struggle with movement prohibitions, trade restrictions, and higher input costs.
