U.S. Proposes 15-State Plan To Curb New Hog Disease
The Agriculture Department proposed a 15 state indemnity program to eradicate vesicular exanthema in hogs. States would share costs, with federal funds covering half. Hogs exposed or recovered move to approved slaughterhouses. diseased animals are killed and buried or burned. Indemnities equal slaughter value minus packing house price, with safety measures ensuring meat can be heat treated and still safe for human consumption.
