Highly pathogenic avian influenza was confirmed at commercial poultry premises near Garstang and Pocklington in England. Authorities established protection and surveillance zones around both sites and said all poultry at the affected premises would be culled; the UK had five active cases that season.
Culling and movement restrictions can reduce nearby poultry output and disrupt deliveries, creating localized upward pressure on poultry prices. The article does not quantify the affected flock size or a broader supply impact.
