Swine output in Thailand is expected to drop by 30% this year from a previously estimated 12 million animals.
According to Surachai Sutthitham, President of the Swine Raisers Association of Thailand, porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRSV) is responsible for the downfall of the output. He also mentioned other diseases such as porcine epidemic diarrhoea and foot-and-mouth disease that have caused lower production.
