Vietnam: Vietnam African Swine Fever Update
Link to report:
African Swine Fever (ASF) outbreaks have reoccurred in many parts of Vietnam, leading to the death and culling of 43,150 pigs from January to August 8, 2020. The ASF outbreaks have had major impacts on Vietnam’s livestock industry, leading to a decline in pork production and an unprecedented pork price crisis. The Government of Vietnam (GVN) is promoting pork imports and supporting the rebuilding of swine herds in order to address the domestic hog/pork supply and price issues.
