H5 avian influenza was confirmed at a laying hen farm in Yeoncheon, South Korea, housing about 91,000 chickens, the first domestic poultry detection of the 2026-2027 season. South Korea imposed a nationwide 24-hour movement restriction on poultry farms, slaughterhouses and feed mills, and culling and epidemiological investigation have started at the farm.
Disease outbreaks in South Korean poultry can tighten local egg and chicken supply and raise demand for feed as flocks are culled and rebuilt, while movement restrictions disrupt feed mill operations. The impact on global feed prices is likely modest given Korea's size.
