AB  - The first case of African swine fever in domestic pigs in Serbia was in 2019. The following
year, the disease was confirmed in wild boar. Thenceforth, ASF has been continuously reported in
both wild and domestic pigs. The outbreaks in domestic pigs could not be linked directly to wild
boars, even though wild boars were endemically infected, and reservoirs for ASF. This study aimed to
investigate outbreaks and routes of transmission in domestic pigs in a region of central Serbia where
no outbreaks in wild boar were reported. Fourteen outbreaks of ASF on backyard farms with low
biosecurity were traced back, and no connection to wild boar was found. The epidemic investigation
covered 2094 holdings, with 24,368 pigs, out of which 1882 were tested for ASF. In surrounding
hunting grounds, field searches were conducted. Dead wild boars were found, and 138 hunted wild
boars were negative for ASFV. It was concluded that outbreaks in 2021 were provoked by the illegal
trade of live animals and pig products. Even though infective pressure from wild boars is assumed,
no positive cases have been found, while the ASFV spreads within the domestic swine population
evidenced in four recent outbreaks in 2022
