7 Animal Health System in Japan - Major players (1) The Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries (MAFF) provides basic policy and guidance on animal disease control measures in cooperation with prefectural governments, the National Institute of Animal Health and other relevant organizations. The Animal Quarantine Service, MAFF conducts import/export quarantine. (2) Prefectural governments establish local veterinary service centers ( Livestock Hygiene Service Centers ) as the front line organizations to implement animal disease control measures. MAFF supports the activities of Livestock Hygiene Service Centers and organizes training for their veterinary staff. (3) National and local livestock industry associations for animal disease control (e.g., Livestock and Livestock Products Hygiene Guidance Associations) encourage producers to take voluntary actions (e.g., vaccinations, disinfection). International organizations (e.g., OIE) Producers Beef cattle: 52,000 farms (2.48 M head) Dairy cattle: 17,000 farms (1.35 M head) Pigs: 4,800 farms (9.31 M head) Layers: 2,400 farms (170 M hens) Broilers: 2,400 farms (130M broilers) (as of Feb. 1, 2016) Industrial associations for disease control Livestock Hygiene Service Centers of the prefectural governments 170 centers (including disease diagnosis centers) with 2,084 veterinarians Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare (MHLW) 486 Health Centers 101 Meat Inspection Centers with 2,685 veterinarians (as of Mar. 31, 2015) Food Safety and Consumer Affairs Bureau, MAFF National Veterinary Assay Laboratory National Institute of Animal Health 6 = Animal Quarantine Service, MAFF Head office, 7 branches, 17 sub branches, with 413 animal quarantine officers (as of Apr. 2016) p.6

9 Domestic Animal Disease Control in Japan (1) MAFF provides basic policy and guidance on animal disease control measures and supports prefectures to implement them. Specific Measures Taken in Japan Prevention Strict hygiene management at farms Biosecurity Standards (2) MAFF also encourages livestock farmers to implement strict biosecurity measures, monitors the disease situation (active/passive surveillance) and provides guidance on vaccinations. (3) In case of disease occurrence, MAFF implements the culling of infected animals and puts in place necessary measures such as movement restrictions and testing. Early response Monitoring the disease situation (active/passive surveillance) Early detection and reporting Containment Culling of infected animals Disinfection Movement restrictions Testing of the surrounding farms Guidelines for specific animal infectious disease control.. p.8

10 Biosecurity measures on farms Biosecurity Standards Update information and receive guidance on biosecurity Set biosecurity control areas Prevent introduction of pathogens into the biosecurity control areas Prevent introduction of pathogens from wild animals (e.q. bird net) Maintain hygienic conditions of the biosecurity control areas Health check of the livestock Secure burial sites and disposal facilities Keep records that enables prompt identification of the infection routes Disinfection gate for vehicles at entrance to a farm Net for prevention of wild bird p.9 9

11 Advanced Hygiene Management based on HACCP approach at Production Stage Farm HACCP Advanced Hygiene Management Guidelines based on HACCP approach at Farm Level developed (FY2002~) HACCP approach at Farm Level shared and promoted among local stakeholders : livestock hygiene service centers, livestock producers, livestock industry organizations, veterinarians, etc. Certification criteria for being recognized as HACCP Farm established and a certification system developed (FY2009~) Training for Farm HACCP advisors (FY2008~) and pilot project involving whole food chain (production stage, the processing, distribution to consumption stages) started (FY2009~) Certification of HACCP Farms by certification organizations started (FY2011~) Creation of an implementation manual by each farmer Hazard factor survey (Salmonella, E coli O157, antibacterial agents, etc.) Hazard analysis (HA) Setting critical control points (CCP) Creation of an implementation manual Advanced Hygiene Management Guidelines Based on the HACCP approach, model requirements for controlling or reducing hazards are developed for each type of livestock. Promotion of Farm HACCP Farm HACCP advisors Advice, Monitoring, Testing and Improvement Implementation Implementation of hygiene management based on the manual No. of farms working on HACCP approach : 4,934 (As of March,2016) Verification Appropriate revision of the manual Feedback including abattoir inspections Certification organizations : 2 orgs approved Certification as HACCP Farm Valid for 3 years No. of farms certified :100 (As of March,2017) Production of safer livestock products which meet consumer high demand Building trust of consumers in livestock products p10

12 It can be possible to; 1 Merits for Farm HACCP manage Hazard factors at Farm Level (residue veterinary products, needles, etc.) 2 realize appropriate hygiene conditions with optimizing costs on animal hygiene COST HYGIENE CONDITIONS 3 advertise as a farm of high level hygiene standard to your trading partners Farm HACCP Implemented p.11

13 Strengthening measures at the port to prevent the invasion of FMD etc. Disinfection of travelers shoe soles and vehicles at ports, awareness raising, surprise inspection by quarantine dogs. Amendment of the Act on Domestic Animal Infectious Diseases Control (April 2011) enabled more countermeasures including interviews of the travelers, inspection and disinfection of luggage at entry points. Countries and regions with outbreaks Disease alert for travelers Preventative measures at ports Questionnaire for Travelers entering Japan Luggage Inspection by a quarantine dog Disinfection of shoes by disinfectant soaked carpet Q1. Have you touched livestock (e. g. cattle, pigs, chickens etc.) or have you been at a livestock facility, such as a stock farm or slaughterhouse, within the last week? Q2. Are you carrying clothing, shoes, etc. that have touched livestock, their manure or soil? Are you carrying with you any ham or other meat product? Q3. Do you plan to touch livestock in Japan within the next week?

18 Past Outbreak (1) Outbreak and Control Measures in Miyazaki in 2010 On April 20, 2010, FMD occurred in Miyazaki (the first outbreak of FMD in Japan for the last 10 years). (210,714 animals in 292 households were slaughtered for control). Emergency vaccination was applied for the first time in Japan to contain the rapid spread in eastern Miyazaki (87,094 animals were vaccinated and slaughtered). As a result, the occurrence of FMD was reduced and no occurrence has been confirmed since July 4, All the movement restrictions were lifted on July /April/2010 Occurrence of first case 19/May Vaccination decided 4/June Act on Special Measures for FMD came into force 27/July All restriction lifted 5/February/2011 OIE status (FMD free country where vaccination is not practiced) recovered Peak number of suspected infected animals waiting for culling Increase in the number of suspected infected animals waiting for culling Suspected infected animals waiting for culling Spread of the disease Decrease in the number of suspected infected animals waiting for culling p.17

19 Important Points of the Partly Revised Act on Domestic Animal Infectious Diseases Control In light of the occurrence of FMD in Miyazaki in 2010 and the occurrence of HPAI since November 2010, the Act on Domestic Animal Infectious Diseases Control was revised in April 2011 in order to strengthen epidemic control measures by focusing on the prevention of the occurrence of livestock infectious diseases, early detection and reporting as well as prompt and appropriate initial control measures. As part of the above mentioned revision, improved financial support was implemented on July 1, 2011 and measures including asking specific questions to entrants, adding new content to the rearing hygiene management standards and requiring the submission of reports on specific symptoms were implemented on October 1, Outbreak prevention Giving livestock quarantine officers the authority to ask specific questions to entrants, inspect and disinfect the personal belongings of entrants Requiring livestock owners to install disinfection systems before outbreaks and ensuring that they disinfect people, goods and vehicles which enter barns, etc. Adding to the rearing hygiene management standards measures such as securing the land needed to incinerate and bury infected animals, etc. Requiring livestock owners to report the livestock rearing hygiene management situation to the prefectural governor. The prefectural governor shall give guidance, advice, recommendations or orders if owners do not comply with the rearing hygiene management standards. Early detection and reporting In addition to the compulsory reporting of infected animals and suspected infected animals, owners are required to report livestock which show the symptoms specified by the MAFF minister. Others Introducing an approval system on possessing pathogens in order to ensure the appropriate management of the pathogens of livestock infectious diseases Prompt and appropriate initial control measures Introducing preventive slaughtering of livestock other than infected animals and suspected infected animals, as a last resort to prevent the spread of FMD Requiring livestock owners to install disinfection systems when a livestock infectious disease has occurred and ensuring the disinfection of people and vehicles leaving the barns, etc. Requiring the disinfection of people and vehicles going through disinfection stations Strengthening financial support Paying special compensation for animals infected with FMD, HPAI, etc.; paying the whole appraised amount in addition to the ordinary compensation Creating the rule that those who did not take necessary measures to prevent the spread of diseases will not be paid part or all of the compensation or special compensation, or, will be required to return compensation All types of livestock became subject to compensation for reduced sales when prefectures restrict movement. Costs for installing disinfection stations paid by prefectures were added to the costs for livestock infectious disease prevention. p.18

48 Conclusion Transboundary animal diseases(tads) affecting livestock trade are chronically present in neighboring countries. Due to the movement of people and goods internationally along with the economic growth, the risk of TADs transmission is increasing. For the stable development of livestock industry, Japan takes border protection, measure for disease prevention and spreading, and also contributes to the improvement of international animal health in cooperation with OIE and related countries.
