Tridge summary

In recent weeks, the situation of African swine fever in Croatia has worsened, especially in the county of Osijek-Baranja.

Three farms have been affected: one with 34 animals, a second with 1,660 animals, and a third with approximately 10,000 animals. The first farm was already in the protection zone.

Since 2023, when ASF first appeared in Croatia, 39,000 pigs have been culled, but this number will now increase to more than 50,000, more than 5% of the national pig population.

The government has mobilized the army and police to protect agricultural farms and borders, reinforce checks on cars, trucks, and vans, and prevent the transport of at-risk meat.
