The FAO released recommendations for surveillance of H5N1 in cattle, with broader application to other farmed mammals. The guidance notes that clade 2.3.4.4b has spread from wild birds to poultry and now to mammals.
It says transmission on farms is mainly through milk and cattle movements.
The guidance is aimed at improving detection and control in livestock, which could affect dairy and herd management practices over time. It is not a direct supply shock, so the near-term price effect is minimal.
