Foot-and-mouth disease spreads in South Africa, raising meat prices and prompting vaccine use and new funding, while Botswana faces potential UK beef import bans.
Foot-and-mouth disease is spreading rapidly in South Africa, affecting eight provinces and disrupting meat and dairy production, with meat prices rising 12% in December—the largest increase in eight years.
The government has launched a new response, deploying a locally made vaccine for the first time in over two decades and investing R100 million to control the outbreak.
Meanwhile, the UK has warned it may restrict beef imports from Botswana after an FMD outbreak was confirmed in the North East District, prompting farmers in Botswana to urge increased agricultural funding to combat the disease and protect food security.
