# Pennsylvania Poultry Farms Get $25M Bird Flu Aid

> Pennsylvania opened a $25 million HPAI Recovery Reimbursement Grant Program for poultry producers hit by avian influenza, which has forced the loss of more than 4.2 million birds on 17 farms in Lancaster and Berks counties. Farms inside 3-kilometer infected zones can seek full reimbursement on losses up to $100,000, with the first-round application deadline set for Sept. 10.

## Why it matters

The disease-driven culling of more than 4 million birds tightens local poultry supply, but the aid helps affected farms rebuild flocks and returns output over time, so the price effect is modest. Feed buyers in Pennsylvania may see steadier demand from restocking producers.
