Bulgaria reports ASF outbreak at an industrial pig farm
Bulgarian veterinary authorities announced another African swine fever (ASF) outbreak at an industrial farm located in the northeast of the country. 24,000 pigs are to be culled, according to authorities in Sofia.
This is the first case confirmed this year and the largest since August when 6 other farms lost more than 130,000 pigs. By now, the national swine inventory in Bulgaria has declined by more than 30% creating problems in supply for producers.
ASF virus is present in 13 European countries and threatens to spread from Poland to Germany. Bulgaria is fighting against African Swine Fever since 2018 but last year the virus has been found in wild boars to household farms and industrial farms.
