Duck and challenges in running the flu A/H5N1
KTNT - Avian influenza are at risk of outbreaks in the provinces of Cuu Long Delta. Time there were 3 local areas arising outbreak of Ca Mau, Dong Thap, Soc Trang. Meanwhile, the duck run, is the main culprit spread disease, has launched swim up from field to other fields; to manage the number of forums as well as duck vaccination schedule is causing the industry headache features.
Article I: "The hand" with the duck run?
Breeding ducks run the job is living a long life in the Mekong Delta (Mekong Delta). Before bird flu appears, this is a job not only bring high economic efficiency, but also valuable biologically important in rice production of this delta. Ducks pick rice fall fabric, contributing to clean after each seasonal field, deeply moving collection hoppers, buildings BUOU gold ... But in time the disease is widespread, this method of raising her children need to change.
Difficult to control
Mekong Delta where raising ducks run the country with the most amount to over 30 million. Something worth saying that although avian influenza are the complicated development, risk spreads on a large scale is very high but the status of breeding ducks running after some time im Ang has developed strong returns in 2009 and continue to replicate the population at the time now.
For example, in Tra Vinh, in 2009, the province has more than 4.5 million birds, an increase of 315,639 over the 2008 and expected in 2010 could reach 4.8 million. Bridge Horizontal one local poultry thrive with more than 3 million children, accounting for 60% of total population in the province, which mainly run the duck, duck tongue. Investors have worried about what the Forum ducks from other provinces to run the unknown origin, very contagious disease.
Biggest problem of the Mekong Delta province of current forums is difficult to control the duck run. Few years, the management by granting windows have also been deployed but not actually "easy food" as the original theory. The reason was that many households are not self raising participation prevention services, even occur to people are borrowing window to run the ducks, the ducks were sold offline recovery window is not level. This is the cause of the difficult management of vaccination schedule.
In fact, the outbreak arising in the early months of 2010 in some localities in the region major departure from ducks to run the forums. In Ca Mau, the local is still in the danger of disease as avian influenza is not 21 days, greater pressure on the area of rice harvested nearly complete, will welcome a large number of ducks from the same run overflow into other provinces. Meanwhile, Hau Giang faced ducks from two regional forums translated as Ca Mau and Soc Trang can be landed at any time. To prevent the province has set up stations to check on the movement of poultry and waterways.
Nguyen Van Dong, Director of Department of Agriculture and Rural Development Hau Giang proposed: "We made the local level monitoring books for livestock vaccination. When checking if the ducks were detected running into the same locality has no vaccine vaccination certificate is confiscated and destroyed.
"Bug Could" big in the work of vaccination
According to industry functions, one cause of avian influenza outbreaks because the work has not been vaccinated and local implementation in earnest and eventually drain. During Market Monitoring the situation of avian influenza prevention in the Mekong Delta of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development th?ng 3 / 2010, the mission has a lot of negligence in this work. There are local reports vaccination vaccine - 12000/14000 for the poultry, but the actual number much larger, up to 50,000 children. There are provinces reported vaccination rate reached 100% but the check does not exceed 20%. That's not to mention the situation many vets do not understand the process of social inoculation; aware farmers is not high, when dead birds are not subject to reporting, not the mass vaccination or no vaccination subjective. ..
Cause of outbreaks of avian influenza do not appear new, multiple solutions are also made so far but ensuring poultry vaccinated properly, sufficient and timely review is still a difficult problem solution . Forum has released the ducks run up to swim alongside the same type, there are local reports wrong about inoculation, poultry still missing through the first injection. If this situation persists, the risk of influenza outbreaks service is unavoidable.
Duck and challenges in running the flu A/H5N1 (article II): Focus on epidemic prevention
KTNT - Up to this point, the Mekong Delta (Mekong Delta) is still the hot spots of avian influenza while still two provinces (Ca Mau, Soc Trang) has translated over 21 days and not run the forums are ducks forced the military production "go around the regions when the winter-spring rice harvest begins clear.
Article I: "The hand" with the duck run?
Urgent task of the local time is, concentrate all measures to prevent progress, to avoid spreading the community.
Run the control ducks
Mekong Delta is considered the largest duck breeding area of Southeast Asia. Typically, seasonal recently ended, ducks are the same compensation. If no progress flu, this is a great resources for farmers. But since the service appears, forums ducks were "short block market river, also means that resources of a department of agriculture dramatically reduced. Therefore, even a ban from the local farmers still run the stealth duck drop, even emerged as a negative "liner hand, for paper" local vets ball, any other application "visa" for ducks in the forums.
Therefore, local authorities said, need to control ducks running the forums and make good the vaccine inoculation. According to Deputy Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development Diep Kinh Tan, the recent round of testing in a local system of writing is all but implementation in practice is not as expected should lead to disease recurrence. Even as a local Ca Mau, avian influenza has occurred since September 2009, lasted far not end points. Worrying than that, recently, avian influenza primarily occurs on the forums ducks, so, shall control ducks running the forums as heavy as ever.
Enhanced from base
But there is one fact that, in many places, prevention and control services forums run the ducks are not held strict and often, if not a number of staff also make the conversation. Mr. Tan stated a fact, many communal leaders do not know from where the ducks by the people to harvest is completed in full the duck run, can not understand the quantity is how many. There are local, the Forum report ducks infected with H5N1 is the 5000, but until the destruction of only 1,000 children.
From this fact, the conference implemented measures to prevent bird flu in the Mekong Delta was held recently, Deputy Minister Diep Kinh Tan directing agriculture of the provinces and the Mekong Delta region to review the prevention against progress; quickly deploy a 2010 vaccination campaign for poultry feed (it is best deployed in March). Department of Animal Health a priority for vaccine inoculation to the Mekong Delta region. In addition, localities should be managed for ducks to run the forums, if not vaccinated for the Forum just duck it must be vaccinated.
In parallel, the search for a new direction for farming to ensure the ducks run benefits of breeding, do not waste the potential is also should. Actual recent years, duck farming meet challenges, to move away, even pay rent while the disease is always stalking. According to Department of Livestock, to develop forums ducks, Mekong Delta farmers must comply with existing measures to search for effective management of the duck run, firstly to encourage breeding towards the farm. Construction and recognition of grassroots, regional and inter-regional security epidemic, especially in areas with similar production facilities, large livestock. As GS.Vo Tong Xuan, former Rector of the University of An Giang, the need to maintain and develop breeding ducks in the Mekong delta is legitimate, should be considered, serious research directions and open to farmers, can apply the methods combined monocultures instead of rice.
Some comments said that breeding ducks in the model of biosecurity is inevitable choice in the context of widespread disease. So the provinces to promote the planning of livestock concentration areas, encouraging farmers to apply the model to fit the new breeding utilize their potential, just avoiding disease.
