The EU ASF strategy
![Page 11: The EU experience in responding toASF · 2019-09-06 · Setting thescene: The EU experience in responding toASF African Swine Fever Forum April 30 and May 1,2019 Ottawa,Ontario Directorate](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022042102/5e7eeaea1313ed2f31441d99/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
The wildboar challenge
• ASF is not a truly density dependent infection: persistence of infected carcasses
• Reducing viral load of the environment: carcassremoval and disposal
• Reducing wildboar density: the CZ success
![Page 12: The EU experience in responding toASF · 2019-09-06 · Setting thescene: The EU experience in responding toASF African Swine Fever Forum April 30 and May 1,2019 Ottawa,Ontario Directorate](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022042102/5e7eeaea1313ed2f31441d99/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
The domestic pig challenge
• Low contagiosity: ASF is a disease with a tendency to spread slowly within a herd
• Reinforced “passive” surveillance is the key: 97% of the outbreaks were reported by the farmer so passive surveillance worked well
• PCR testing (not ELISA)
• Biosecurity is of paramount importance
![Page 13: The EU experience in responding toASF · 2019-09-06 · Setting thescene: The EU experience in responding toASF African Swine Fever Forum April 30 and May 1,2019 Ottawa,Ontario Directorate](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022042102/5e7eeaea1313ed2f31441d99/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
The EU ASF Strategy in a nutshell
Wild boar management: long term
– Passive surveillance for early detection
– Sophisticated hunting: selective, adult females
– Feeding ban: in risk areas
– Carcass removal and safe disposal: fast
Human factor: short term
– Awareness for passive surveillance
– Enforcement swill feeding ban
– Biosecurity strengthened
– Hunter vs farming: behaviour risks
– The “other” actors: travellers, customs...

Few key actions• High peak of the disease in the summer
• Awareness campaigns for targeted groups
• Coordinated actions between farmers, hunters, other stakeholdersand official services
• Small non-commercial (also small commercial) with lowerbiosecurity farmers need to be involved in the fight against thisdisease
• Human factor – increased checks at EU external borders (personalconsignments, unauthorised goods, smuggling of commoditiesetc.)
• Farmers and hunters need to upgrade their practices to be readyfor African swine fever: biosecurity is a key
