# Bird flu prompts DA ban on poultry imports from Minnesota

> The Philippines’ Department of Agriculture temporarily banned imports of poultry and related products from Minnesota after highly pathogenic avian influenza outbreaks were confirmed across multiple counties. The order suspends and revokes import clearances, while allowing certain shipments already in transit or at port to proceed under specified conditions.

## Why it matters

The restriction removes a source of U.S. poultry products from the Philippine market, potentially tightening import supply and supporting prices for competing poultry products. The effect may be limited if Minnesota accounts for a small share of Philippine imports.
