Backyard pig breeding will not be banned, but farmers will be required to adhere to a minimum set of biosecurity rules, president of the National Sanitary Veterinary and Food Safety Authority (ANSVSA) Robert Chioveanu told AGERPRES on Monday.
Chioveanu explained that although ANSVSA mainly seeks to impose biosecurity rules for all types of pig farming, the small-scale breeders who plan to raise more than five animals will have to seek authorization as A-type commercial holdings and comply with specific biosecurity regulations. AGERPRES
