The USDA reports fewer avian flu detections in wild birds, with about 2,600 cases in 2023 versus nearly 6,000 in 2022. A USDA chief veterinary officer warned that risk remains high and urged strict biosecurity, noting that young birds from summer nesting grounds could carry the virus.
Lower wild-bird detections reduce the near-term risk of flock losses, which eases pressure on poultry and egg supply, though a renewed outbreak remains a risk for prices.
