A quarantine was imposed in February 2022 after cases of the disease were detected on a local farm. Bovine leukemia is a viral disease that can significantly reduce livestock productivity and negatively impact farm economies. Throughout the quarantine, veterinary services worked actively to control and eradicate the disease, conducting regular inspections and testing of animals.
The lifting of the quarantine was made possible by the Ferzikovo Veterinary Station's report, which confirmed the stabilization of the situation and the minimization of the risk of disease spread. This decision opens new horizons for the region's agricultural sector, allowing farmers to resume full operations, improve the genetic characteristics of their livestock, and restore MEAT and MILK production.
Furthermore, lifting restrictions will positively impact product sales, allowing farmers to freely sell their goods, improving their financial situation, and creating new jobs. Farm managers previously diagnosed with leukemia will receive appropriate notifications, allowing them to quickly adapt to the changes and plan measures to improve the HEALTH of their livestock.
The lifting of the bovine leukemia quarantine in the Kaluga Region is a significant step toward restoring the region's agricultural sector and an example of the effectiveness of veterinary services in addressing such challenges. Farmers can now look to the future with confidence and optimistically plan for their farm development.
