Hanoi (VNA)ℱ – BAF Vietnam Agricultural Joint Stock has sent a document to the Ministry of Agriculture and Environment, proposing that it will build two 6-storey pig farming complexes in the southern province of Tay Ninh and Binh Phuoc, its Deputy Director General Nguyen Van Minh said.
Accordingly, the first project located in Tan Chau district, Tay Ninh, with a scale of 64,000 breeding sows, is expected to produce 1.6 million pigs annually while the second project in Dong Phu district of Binh Phuoc with a scale of 20,000 sows is expected to produce 500,000 pigs a year.
Under these two projects, pigs will be raised in a multi-storey model by Muyuan Group - the largest pig breeding company in China.
Minh said that Vietnam has not had specific regulations on the livestock density of this type of model. Although there is national standards for multi-storey livestock farming models, the specific legal criteria on the environment, construction licensing and environmental impact assessment are still unclear, causing difficulties in the process of completing the licensing application.
Pham Kim Dang, Deputy Director of the Department of Livestock Production and Veterinary Medicine, said that currently Vietnamese law has no regulations prohibiting the raising of livestock and poultry in multi-storey buildings. The high-tech pig farming model in the buildings is in line with the State's policy on promoting research, application and transfer of science and technology.
However, regarding BAF’s proposal, Dang said that that the company must pay special attention to issues related to the environmental protection and disease prevention and control.
In addition, measures must be taken strictly to properly control the slaughtering, processing and traceability of products, he added./.
