DA to ease regulations on hog transport

THE Department of Agriculture (DA) announced plans to relax regulations on transporting hogs from areas with active cases of African swine fever (ASF) to other areas to ensure a stable pork supply throughout the country.

In a series of consultations concluded last Saturday, the department said that refined protocols will govern the movement of healthy pigs from Red Zones amid a resurgence of ASF, particularly in Batangas.
