Canada invests $9.6M in African Swine Fever (ASF) prevention, funding 29 projects focused on improving biosecurity, research, and education across provinces. The initiative involves projects such as retrofitting processing plants, developing portable depopulation systems, and creating training courses. The funding aims to ensure the Canadian pork industry is prepared to respond should an ASF case be detected, as ASF poses a significant risk to the country's pork sector, economy, and swine health.
