In this edition of the AHDB podcast, we hear about the new #MuckFreeTruck campaign which is urging pig producers, processors and hauliers to ensure livestock lorries are properly cleaned.

Launched by ourselves and the National Pig Association (NPA), in conjunction with other key stakeholders, the campaign is a response to the thread posed by African swine fever, which is causing hug problems in Asia and eastern Europe.
