Authorities in Quang Ngai Province, Vietnam, reported rising outbreaks of livestock and poultry diseases in 2022. Skin disease affected 834 cattle and buffalo facilities, African swine fever killed 337 pigs, and avian flu killed over 4,600 poultry.
The province ordered stronger prevention and vaccination.
The outbreaks are local and small relative to global supply, so their direct effect on feed commodity prices is limited. They do indicate regional protein supply stress in Vietnam.
