In the absence of outbreaks, no later than November 27 ( perhaps earlier depending on the actual situation ), poultry and waterfowl activities must be terminated. Therefore, at the request of Mr. Thao, poultry farmers in the area must immediately stop importing new herds to avoid economic losses.

In the opinion of many livestock households, the handling of small livestock activities needs to be more determined. In addition, they also asked the city to soon provide a reasonable support policy for farmers to change their careers.
