| Summary: | Possibility and efficacy of African swine fever (ASF) zoning of the Russian Federation (RF) territory and compartmentalization of pig establishments are discussed in the paper. The main goal of thezoning programme is creation of independent zones with different zoo-sanitary status where enhanced surveillance (passive and target) will be carried out and movements of ASF-susceptible live pigs and porcine products between the zones will be restricted. Approval and validation of the programme on ASF zoning of the RF territory will allow reduction (minimization) of risks of possible disease spread to the ASF-free zone as well as achieving the main goal - gaining and maintaining ASF-free status in the whole territory of the country. Moreover, successful programme on pig establishment compartmentalization will allow international trade in pork and porcine products from both ASF-free and ASF-affected zones in case of the disease occurrence in the affected zones. |
