Darmstadt-Dieburg: Linen obligation and corn harvested after SchweinPest!

Dieburg. In a pleasant turn, the district of Darmstadt-Dieburg relaxed the regulations for the African swine fever. This decision, which was announced by the district office in the evening, brings relief for dog owners. According to the new requirements, dogs can walk around without a leash in certain areas of the circle. A step that many dog lovers should put a smile on the face.

The loosening of the leash obligation is only part of the measures that were decided due to the continued situation around the swine fever. The corn harvest, which was previously limited, can now be carried out again under certain conditions. This means that farmers can successfully bring in their harvest with a certain supervision and the right protective measures. This is supported by measures such as drone monitoring that plays an important role in reviewing the prescribed security precautions.

background to the African swine plague

African swine fever is a serious threat to wild and domestic pigs, but does not cause infection in humans or dogs. The disease is usually fatal for pigs and has already led to a sharp decline in stocks in many regions. Therefore, strict surveillance and protection in affected areas was of crucial importance in order to contain the spread of the virus. The loosening now introduced are therefore a sign that the location is under control.

The responsible people emphasize that despite the loosening, vigilance and responsibility are required. Dog owners should continue to make sure that their animals are under control, especially in areas where wild boars could occur. In addition, farmers are expected to strictly adhere to the new regulations to ensure the security of both animals and the harvest.

This step of the district will certainly stimulate many discussions, both about the previous measures and the general challenges in dealing with the African swine fever. For more information about the details of the loosening and their implementation, .
