Belarus removes ban on Hungarian cattle imports

Belarus has lifted a ban on imports of live cattle from Hungary, the farm ministry announced on Friday. Belarus' animal health authority lifted the ban, effective February 3, for cattle from all regions of Hungary with the exceptions of Csongrád, Bács-Kiskun, Baranya, Békés and Tolna counties.
The ban was introduced due to an outbreak of bluetongue, an insect-borne viral disease of ruminants, in Hungary.
