webfact Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 Mystery disease killing pigs in Korat By The Nation Pig farmers in Nakhon Ratchasima have been ordered to cull their herds if they find signs of a mystery disease that is killing pigs in the Northeast province. On Thursday, Jirawan Pluangkratok, a pig raiser in Chokchai district, said two more of her herd had died of the disease, bringing the total to 10. The Department of Livestock Development has banned unauthorised transport of pigs in Nakhon Ratchasima province until the disease is identified. Meanwhile, provincial livestock officials have guaranteed Jirawan compensation of Bt50,000 if she culls her entire herd. Blood samples from the dead animals have been collected but the initial examination failed to clarify the cause of death. The samples have been sent to the Northeastern Veterinary Research and Development Centre in Surin province for further investigation. Nakhon Ratchasima was placed on alert last year after an outbreak of African swine fever in Vietnam and China led to the culling of millions of hogs.

Freigeist365 Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 I found following advise in a very rewarding book about money management and life hacks: "DON'T invest in anything that eats and sh(deleted)..." There are just too many odds to make any business with life stock a life-long success. It's almost like trading - at some point (most likely right at your all time high) you will get shafted... Maybe this one is like a psychological "pay back" by the pigs ignited by unbearable living conditions. perhaps they simply decided to collectively wither away... and I don't mean this as a joke.
