The meeting emphasized that animal husbandry and veterinary departments at all levels must insist on the recovery of hog production and the prevention and control of major animal diseases such as African swine fever, and adopt more pragmatic measures to ensure that the African swine fever epidemic does not rebound and that other major animal epidemics remain stable.
