A study reports the first detection of African swine fever genotype II in Ghana, based on outbreaks sampled in 2022. The work was carried out by USDA Agricultural Research Service scientists with Ghanaian veterinary laboratories.
The finding concerns virus genetics and regional disease spread in West Africa, with no direct effect on global supply, demand or prices for feed commodities.
