In Bulgaria a total of 203,000 pigs were killed due to this disease, Bulgaria’s Minister of Agriculture and Food Desislava Taneva said in Berlin. Minister Taneva attends the world’s biggest fair for food, agriculture and horticulture Green Week Berlin 2020.

Within the frameworks of Green Week Berlin 2020 Minister Taneva participates with her own report at a high-level conference dedicated to African swine fever.
