SURABAYA - The city of Surabaya refuses beef from four regions in East Java, to prevent the entry of an epidemic of Mouth and Nail Disease (FMD). The four districts are Gresik, Sidoarjo, Lamongan, and Mojokerto.
"RPH Surabaya is taking preventive measures against the entry of FMD outbreaks in the RPH environment. We take care not to let the FMD outbreaks from Sidoarjo, Lamongan, Gresik and Mojokerto become livestock or the epidemic enters the RPH," said the President Director (Director), PD RPH Surabaya City, Fajar Arifianto Isnugroho, Wednesday, 11 May.
The first prevention is to implement strict screening on all farm animals that enter the abattoir. Mainly from the four districts in East Java that suspected the FMD virus was found.
"We firmly temporarily reject animals from the 4 areas infected with the FMD," he said.
The second step, namely by routinely spraying biosafety on all cattle pens that enter from vehicles. Because according to him, transmission of the FMD virus can enter through vehicles or things related to these animals.
"That's why spraying is done at every entrance and cage for RPH. Today we spray some, because when we enter we haven't had time to disinfect," he said.
Fajar ensured that the Surabaya City Regional-Owned Enterprises (BUMD) were trying hard to prevent the spread of PMK while protecting Butcher's partners.
"We want to ensure that the Surabaya RPH is safe and that there are no outbreaks, with preventive and preventive measures," he said.
FMD has been found in livestock in four districts of East Java. This is based on the laboratory results of the Center for Veterinary Farma (PUSVETMA) on May 5, 2022.
After the discovery of the PMK virus, Fajar stated, his party immediately coordinated and tightened the entry of livestock into the Surabaya RPH environment. In fact, every cow that enters the abattoir is also inspected.
"For tonight, we will focus on cows that enter starting at 23.00 WIB, will be examined by a doctor regarding the SKKH (Animal Health Certificate) document and will conduct screening before the cows are rested and then slaughtered," he said.
