CSI-W and CDI-W's Cancelled in s'Hertongenbosch

Further to a total ban of all animal movements ­including horses - in
the Netherlands, announced this morning by the Ministry of
Agriculture, CSI-W CDI-W `s-Hertogenbosch had to be cancelled this
morning. Fortunately, very few horses had already arrived in `s-
Hertogenbosch.


On a farm in Olst, Foot and Mouth Disease was diagnosed this
Wednesday. Minister of Agriculture Brinkhorst reported the case to
the Governement. The disease was diagnosed in 4 bovines. The farm has
60 cattle and 20 sheep. The farm had not imported any animals this
year and had also not moved any animal away in the last few weeks.
Destruction of all susceptible animals in a zone of 1 km around the
farm has been started. As of 11:00 today, a total ban of animal
movement has been issued.


It is feared that the upcoming World Cup may also be cancelled or
postponed due to the close geographic proximity. Food and farming
authorities are warning that if the disease were to appear in
Denmark, the livestock industry could face losses up to DKK 40
billion. Canadian Dressage representatives Nancy MacLachlan & Davis
Cup have not yet left for Denmark.
