What if you could help prevent the spread of African swine fever and protect your pigs from this devastating virus? Join us as we dive into a conversation with Dr. Pam Luca and Dr. Loya Inca Asala from the West African Center for Emerging Infectious Diseases. In this fascinating discussion, we explore the transmission, symptoms, and crucial prevention measures of this viral disease that's been plaguing Nigeria's swine population for years, causing yearly outbreaks and huge challenges for pig farmers.
But that's not all! We also have an exclusive chat with Dr. Asala from the National Veterinary Research Institute in Nigeria, who shares insights on producing 20 locally-made vaccines. Discover the process of vaccine acceptance, distribution, and costs. With prevention being the key to a healthy livestock population, listen in to find out how the National Veterinary Research Institute is meeting the national demand for vaccines and making them more affordable for smaller producers. Don't miss this opportunity to gain invaluable knowledge that could make a massive difference in your swine farming business!
