Malyasia, one of the 16 countries that have implemented embargo measures on Belgian pork after the detection of an African swine fever outbreak in the south of the province of Luxembourg, has decided to lift its ban on frozen pork, according to the statements of the Federal Minister of Agriculture, Mr Denis Ducarme.
After the detection of the disease, 16 non-European countries suspended their imports of Belgian pig/pork products.
Belgium has 4,039 pig farms and 6.2 million pigs, more than 90% of them are in Flanders, and they generate an invoicing of €1,300 million in exports, most of them (94%) destined to intra-European markets.
