The Ministry for Food, Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries said two cases of FMD were confirmed at cattle farms in Gangwon Province on the country's northeastern region.
Two additional cases were detected on Tuesday at a pig farm in Yesan and a cattle farm in Daegu 134 kilometers and 300km from Seoul, respectively. All four outbreaks occurred in areas that had not been struck by FMD, which has spread throughout the country since the first case was confirmed on Nov. 29 last year.
The latest outbreaks raise the number of FMD cases officially tallied by the government to 124.
