Tridge summary
(Chuncheon=Yonhap News) Lee Jae-hyun, Reporter = Gangwon Province announced on the 1st that it will inspect the quarantine status of poultry farms in the province to prevent highly pathogenic avian influenza (AI).
The inspection period runs from the 2nd to August 8th, and is a measure to minimize the possibility of disease occurrence by pre-checking and supplementing vulnerable quarantine factors in poultry farms ahead of the high-risk period for highly pathogenic AI.
The inspection targets a total of 227 farms, including professional-scale poultry farms with 3,000 chickens or 2,000 ducks or quail, and small-scale farms with potential quarantine vulnerabilities.
Farms with over 90,000 laying hens will be jointly inspected by the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs and the province.
Farms with 50,000 to 90,000 laying hens, farms near migratory bird habitats, and duck farms will be jointly inspected by the province and municipalities, while other farms will be inspected independently by municipalities.
The inspection will examine the installation and operation of basic quarantine facilities such as fences, quarantine rooms, and pre-rooms, as well as the operation and management status of disinfection equipment.
An Jae-wan, Director of Animal Quarantine, urged, "Farms with insufficient points in the inspection should promptly supplement and do their best in autonomous quarantine prevention."
