Highly pathogenic avian influenza (H5N9) was confirmed at a farm in Yeoncheon County, Gyeonggi Province, raising about 91,000 laying hens, the first such case at a domestic poultry farm this winter season. Authorities ordered culling, access controls and movement restrictions within the control zone.
Culling of laying hens reduces domestic egg supply and can lift egg prices, while raising demand for imported feed ingredients is limited; the impact on feed commodities is minor since this is a single farm in a small producing region.
