 Agriculture in Mongolia is reliant on livestock and food and mouth disease is directly related to their export trade. The moment you have a declaration of food and mouth disease outbreak, all trade is stopped and they cannot export their animals. So it has a direct influence on their livelihoods and economic benefits. In the cooperation between the agency and Mongolian veterinary researchers, the nuclear component is extremely important. It gives us the ability to identify one virus in a million of other viruses. It is the only technology that gives us this high level of sensitivity and specificity. At the moment food and mouth disease outbreaks are under control, but there are some sporadic outbreaks and the challenge for the animal production health section is to identify those outbreaks and eliminate them as early as possible.
