Popular Post webfact Posted October 5, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted October 5, 2021 By Panithan Onthaworn This week Thailand’s Prime Minister Prayut Chan-ocha introduced a “Livestock Sandbox” scheme for Thai farmers to curb the spread of animal diseases among livestock such as cattle, buffaloes, and pigs. The scheme was deliberately named after the Phuket Sandbox, the country’s pilot plan to reopen for vaccinated foreign tourists, with the same goal of preventing the outbreak from damaging livelihoods and the economy. What it means is not flying all the cows in Thailand to the Sandbox area but making sure healthy animals are grouped together by province in a limited area and screened regularly to stop the spread of livestock disease.

ArcticFox Posted October 5, 2021 Share Posted October 5, 2021 "Sandboxes for livestock" = Additional costs and regulations for farmers; additional cost for consumers. "Sustainable" = More wealth for the wealthy; more austerity for the commoners. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tell me truthfully has it been profitable after you take away all of the startup costs needed to vaccinate and test and put things in place.
