Iowa is running drills with 13 other states to prepare in case the African swine fever outbreak in other parts of the world reaches the United States, Successful Farming reported. In a four-day effort, state agencies, legislators, pork producers and pork industry representatives are testing their foreign animal disease plans. The U.S. Department of Agriculture is sending out information with various situations to see how the states would react. For example, in one scenario, the state would issue a “standstill” order for 72 hours, while giving producers 12 hours to get hogs already on trucks to their destinations. Another step could be a quarantine in the area involved in an infected farm. Africa, Europe and Asia already have reported cases of the virus, which is highly infectious and kills pigs within 10 days. It is not transmitted to humans. An outbreak could lead to a $16.5 billion in U.S. revenue losses in first year.
