File photo January 25, 2021 CENTRAL Visayas has been on heightened alert since Jan. 15, 2021, after the first case of the African swine fever (ASF) was detected in Eastern Visayas, or Region 8.
Despite the Department of Agriculture (DA) 8’s assurance that it has managed to curb the spread of the disease in three barangays in Leyte by culling more than 1,000 hogs, DA 7 Director Salvador Diputado met with Cebu Gov. Gwendolyn Garcia on Friday, Jan. 22, to discuss further measures to prevent ASF’s entry to the region, particularly to Cebu Province.
Diputado said Garcia was updated on the ASF situation in the towns of Abuyog, Paz and Javier in Leyte.
