TWENTY-TWO pigs in a Pitas village have been culled in the first phase of the pig-culling exercise to curb the spread of African Swine Fever (ASF) in the district, said Sabah Deputy Chief Minister Dr Jeffrey Kitingan.
In a statement today, Kitingan who is also state Agriculture and Fisheries Minister, said more pigs would soon be culled, with wild pigs and stray pigs also to be considered for culling, if necessary, to ensure the ASF would not spread to the nearby districts.
