      ab: The initial outbreak, high mortality and wide range of influence of African swine fever in China have an impact on the stable development of China's pig market price and industry. Choosing the correct risk aversion behavior of pig farmers is the only way to promote the development of modern pig breeding industry and protect people's livelihood. Studying the epidemic risk aversion behavior of pig farmers and its influencing factors is conducive to enhance the ability of farmers to resist risks and improve the efficiency and production level of pig breeding. Taking pig farmers in three northeastern provinces as the survey object, this paper analyzes the willingness of pig farmers to take epidemic prevention and control measures by using multivariate ordered logistic and multiple logistic models, and discusses the main factors affecting the epidemic risk avoidance behavior of pig farmers. The study found that factors such as pig breeding scale, understanding of pig insurance and epidemic prevention and control knowledge, risk preference and so on can significantly affect the willingness of pig farmers to take epidemic prevention and control measures. Education, specialization and breeding prospect judgment can significantly affect the choice of epidemic risk aversion behavior of pig farmers.
