Extract

The authors were supported by the EU-funded Strengthening of Veterinary Services, Vietnam (SVSV) Project to study the benefits and costs to different stakeholders of options to control Classical Swine Fever (CSF) in the Red River Delta. The potential for export expansion as a result of improved disease control was considered during the study. Vietnam hopes to enter the World Trade Organisation (WTO) in 2005, with an objective of increasing export trade.
