The Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries held a countermeasure meeting that gathered persons in charge on the 9th of this month before the first year of the outbreak.
In this, the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries aims at 120,000 a year by increasing the number of traps by relaxing the conditions for setting traps in nine prefectures, including Gifu and surrounding areas, as a wild boar countermeasure that spreads infection. In addition to strengthening the capture of wild boars, a “defense line” was set up to surround the Gifu and Aichi prefectures to prevent infection from spreading in a band of about 10 kilometres. I decided to put it individually.
In addition to providing subsidies to prevent infections in pigs, it is necessary to set up fences at pig farms nationwide, and to consider the impact of pork vaccination on the export and distribution of pork. We are going to examine whether inoculation in a limited form is possible.
Mr. Hiroaki Ogura, Deputy Secretary of the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries, said, “We still take the serious feelings of producers. We want to endeavor in cooperation with related ministries and prefectures.” Talking
