LET'S BEAT FMD!

For our Nation, Let's Protect Our National Herd

EmaSwati, Foot and Mouth Disease (FMD) threatens our cattle, our livelihoods, and our agriculture. At Khuba Traders, we are stepping up to encourage every farmer and community to actively stop the spread of FMD and restore the health of our livestock.

Good Practices That Will Get Rid of FMD

Success depends on strict discipline and these core actions:

• Control animal movement

  Only move livestock with valid permits. Stop all illegal or unnecessary movement between areas and farms.

• Report suspected cases immediately

  Look for blisters in the mouth, lameness, excessive salivation, or sudden drop in milk. Contact your nearest veterinary officer or extension worker without delay.

• Participate fully in vaccination

  Ensure every animal in your herd receives the vaccine when teams reach your dip tank or community.

• Strengthen biosecurity daily

  Clean and disinfect vehicles, equipment, footwear, and shared tools. Limit visitors to your farm and properly quarantine any new animals.

• Avoid informal livestock trading

  During the control period. The health of the entire national herd must come first.

If we all follow these practices consistently, we break the chain of infection and give our cattle the best chance to thrive again.
