Buan Duck Farm Highly pathogenic AI confirmed ⋯ First case in Jeonbuk this winter
reporter name Moon Min-ju Enter 2021.12.28 19:31
A duck farm in Buan-gun was confirmed with highly pathogenic avian influenza (AI). It is the first time this winter that a highly pathogenic AI has been confirmed in Jeonbuk.
Jeollabuk-do announced on the 28th that a highly pathogenic AI (H5N1 type) was confirmed at a bell duck farm in Buan-gun. The farm raises 10,000 ducks. The culling of the farm species has been completed.
624,000 chickens and ducks are being raised at 15 poultry farms, including 14 chicken farms and 1 duck farm, within a 10-km radius of the farm, which is the standard for quarantine measures. The quarantine authorities are managing the farms within a radius of 500m as a management area, within 500m to 3km as a protected area, and within 3 to 10km as a surveillance area. Fortunately, it was found that there were no other farms within 500m of the subject of preventive slaughter. There is one duck farm within 500m to 3km. Eggs from this farm will be discarded.
According to the province, on the 27th, the farmer reported to the quarantine authorities when the spawn rate decreased (about 53%) and mortality occurred. As a result of testing at the Animal Sanitation Laboratory, H5 type AI was confirmed, and as a result of a close examination by the Agriculture, Forestry and Livestock Quarantine Headquarters on the same day, it was confirmed as H5N1 type highly pathogenic AI.
Accordingly, the provincial government is controlling access to the farm by urgently deploying an early east quarantine team. In addition to restrictions on the movement of poultry farms within a 10km radius of the farm where the outbreak occurred, it was ordered to temporarily suspend movement of duck farms and related facilities and vehicles in the province until noon on the 29th.
In addition, the province has additionally installed 5 control posts and 3 base disinfection facilities in the area to prevent the spread of AI. In the future, 15 poultry farms within a 10-km radius and 4 farms belonging to the same family will be inspected closely.
Park Tae-wook, head of the Animal Quarantine Division, said, "Please closely monitor suspicious symptoms such as an increase in poultry mortality and a decrease in egg laying rate, feed intake, and activity, and report any abnormalities to the quarantine authorities immediately."
Meanwhile, since the 8th of last month, there are 17 poultry farms where highly pathogenic AI has occurred, including 2 in Sejong, 3 in South Chungcheong, 4 in North Chungcheong, and 8 in Jeonnam.
