BANDAR SERI BEGAWAN (Borneo Bulletin/Asia News Network): Brunei Darussalam is free from Australia’s cattle lumpy skin disease (LSD), said the Ministry of Primary Resources and Tourism (MPRT) in a press statement on Wednesday (Aug 16) advising the public and agricultural industry operators not to get alarmed about the LSD disease incident.
The statement said, “Following local media reports on temporary import suspension of live cattle and buffalo from Australia by neighbouring countries due to the LSD incident found in live cattle imported from Australia, MPRT has obtained confirmation from the Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry (DAFF), Australia as the authority in that country.
