Management And Construction Of Specified Animal Disease Free Zone

Animal disease is a major factor to restrict animal husbandry development and encumber international trade of animal products chronically. It's also a potential danger to human beings. Because China is a vast country, animal husbandry development is unbalance, and animal disease control system is not very well. Our animal products often stand a disadvantage place in risk analysis of international trade because of the animal disease control. Building up relatively independent and closed Model of Animal Disease Free Zone is very helpful to control the animal disease.Animal Disease Free Zone was built up in Sichuan province, including 14 municipals, 96 counties (30 model counties, 32 buffer counties and 34 normal counties), and 3 provincial enterprises, with the help of Ministry of Agriculture of the People's Republic of China. The final goal was to build Sichuan province as an export base of pigs and its products. Law, administrative measure, economic methods and technology were fully used to strengthen the animal disease control system and infrastructure building up according to the international rules and standards. Important animal disease (FMD, AI, ND, and HC ) would be prevented and cleaned gradually by using vaccination and non-vaccination methods according to the goal. Through several years' hard work, certain breaking through and good results were achieved in some region of our province. The huge potential effect was showing out for protecting good development of Sichuan animal husbandry.The condition of Animal Disease Free Zone was introduced; construction project of the model of Animal Disease Free Zone in Sichuan was description; how to building up the safeguard system of animal disease prevention was expounded; and effect of Animal Disease Free Zone was discussed finally; point out with the margin of international vet's system, Put forward the further development with the suggestion of the Animal Disease Free Zone.The construction of Animal Disease Free Zone was a new work, the critical things were its running and the confirmation of the guaranteed Meat (Fang Xin Rou) market chronically. We should go on working hard to build up the Animal Disease Free Zone according to the international standards and keep up with international markets. We should also build up good breeding system and set up model processing companies based on the Animal Disease Free Zone construction. We would build Sichuan province as an export base of pigs and its products according to Premier Wen Jiabao's claim to provide more and more high quality pig products for our country and the whole world, and bring Sichuan Pig Brand to the world. We should also promote the development of animal husbandry in Sichuan steadily so as to increase the peasant's income.
