Training on biosafety pig farming techniques for households

Biosecurity in livestock farming is the synchronous implementation of technical, management and veterinary hygiene measures to prevent and limit the spread of pathogens from outside and destroy pathogens existing inside the livestock facility to prevent pathogens from spreading between livestock areas.

In the current period, biosafety farming is a sustainable direction for the livestock industry and it is also the livestock development orientation of the agricultural sector in general. In order to help households gain more knowledge about biosafety farming, on September 23 and 26, 2025, Cao Bang Agricultural Extension and Forestry Breeding Center coordinated with the People's Committees of Nguyen Binh and Ha Quang communes, Cao Bang province to organize 2 training courses on "Biosafety Pig Farming Techniques" for each class of 30 students who are hamlet chiefs, youth, livestock households, and owners of small and medium pig farms in hamlets.

           In addition to theoretical content, students also practice disease prevention and treatment skills for pigs such as: mixing techniques, spraying disinfectants in barns, how to mix drugs, vaccines, how to inject properly, and introducing some common medicines for treating diseases in pigs...

           At the end of the training course, trainees have improved their knowledge of biosafety and management in pig farming. From there, they can apply it to production practices to ensure disease safety in the face of complicated developments of diseases in livestock farming, especially African swine fever, so that people can continue to re-herd and develop livestock farming to bring about economic efficiency, while promoting propaganda and guiding farmers to widely apply biosafety-oriented livestock farming in the locality.
