South Korea confirmed H5N1 at a layer farm in Yeoju, Gyeonggi, with 260,000 hens affected; it was the third poultry-farm outbreak reported that month. Authorities will move layer farms nationwide from quarterly to fortnightly testing, following an H5N9 outbreak at a duck farm in Jangheung.
The outbreak and any culling could reduce egg-laying capacity and tighten poultry supply, lending support to egg and chicken prices. More frequent testing may increase biosecurity costs but could help limit wider spread.
