Amid recent outbreaks of African swine fever (ASF) in Ukraine and across Europe, refreshing knowledge on biosecurity has become especially important. This is why it is timely to highlight the free online course “African Swine Fever — Everything Your Business Needs to Know” available on the AgriAcademy platform.

The course is designed for farm owners, managers, farm workers, and anyone involved in the pig industry. It explains how the virus spreads, the key risk factors, how to assess the threat and implement preventive measures, as well as what to do in case of suspicion or an outbreak.

The training modules are presented as short video lessons, and the course can be completed at any convenient time — free of charge. Upon successful completion, participants receive a certificate.

Given the latest ASF outbreaks in various regions of Ukraine and the introduction of quarantine restrictions, this course is not just an opportunity to improve knowledge but a practical prevention tool. If you have not yet joined, create an account on AgriAcademy and protect your farm.
