A wild boar carcass found in the area around Wong Yue Tan in Tai Po tested positive for African swine fever virus.

Swine production is expected to decline significantly in 2022, causing an upward price pressure on pork.

Here's how China's feed industry is growing to meet the increasing demand for pig feed in the wake of ASF.

An agreement signed this week between the governments of France and China will allow pork producers in the European country to export pig meat in the Asian market even if an African swine fever (ASF) outbreak will occur in the future. During his visit to China in November 2019, the President of France, Emmanuel Macron, had agreed with the President of the People's Republic of China, Xi Jinping, to carry out work aimed at China's recognition of applying the principle of "zoning" in the case an African swine fever (ASF) outbreak is declared on French territory.

The U.S. is continuing to take steps to keep African swine fever out of the country. USDA recently announced that it has approved blood swabs and spots as official African swine fever (ASF) testing tissues.

The number of farms that got infected with African Swine Fever in Poland has risen rapidly over the last few weeks. At the moment 16 farm sites have been confirmed infected. The developments happen at a moment that numbers of infected wild boar rise in Western Poland and Germany, which is uncommon for the summer months.
