                        By Dominique Patton

                        BAODING, China, March 20 (Reuters) - When pigs on the Xinda Husbandry Co. Ltd breeding farm in northern China began dying in growing numbers in early January, it looked increasingly likely that the farm had been struck by the much feared African swine fever, an incurable disease that has spread rapidly across the country since last year.

                        But after taking samples from some pigs, local officials in the Xushui district of Baoding city, about an hour?s drive from Beijing, said their tests came back negative, said Sun Dawu, chairman of Hebei Dawu Agriculture Group, the farm owner.

                        As hundreds of pigs began dying daily on the 20,000-head farm, the company obtained a test kit that showed some positive results for the virus. But after further lobbying by Xinda, officials just offered the company subsidies for farm buildings and other investments, said Sun.

                        Sun?s account of events and pictures taken by farm staff of dead pigs lying in rows and a pile outside the farm could not be independently verified.

                        Xushui district said in a faxed response to Reuters on Tuesday that it was opening an investigation into the case, adding that it had found some ?discrepancies? with the reported version of events...

                        • merci, cette situation me semble avoir pour cause le fait que suite ? un "stamping out" officiel, il y aurait un d?lai officiel pour remettre des animaux, de m?moire de 6 mois. Vous disposez des r?gles en place d'une part et d'autre part sont-elles les m?mes pour tous en tous lieux ?
                          Si le cadre l?gal est 6 mois, pour des ?l?vages en batiment , que certains souhaitent faire plus vite, dans le silence, me semble hautement probable...

                              j'ai aim? ce point , r?v?lateur de la confiance des acteurs dans les autorit?s : Subventions provinciales pour aider au repeuplement des fermes

                              Au niveau de la ferme, il faut reprendre les choses rapidement. On peut en conclure que les autorit?s chinoises ont d?cid? de reconstituer rapidement les stocks dans les grandes exploitations . Selon l'agence de presse Reuters, le MARA a exhort? les d?partements provinciaux de l'agriculture ? d?bloquer des subventions temporaires pour les fermes d'?levage "d?s que possible" afin de les aider ? reprendre la production. Selon l'agence de presse, toutefois, de nombreuses exploitations ne seraient pas dispos?es ? reconstituer leurs stocks pour le moment.
