Japan confirmed its first highly pathogenic bird flu case of the season at a poultry farm in Kameoka, Kyoto Prefecture. About 200,000 laying hens will be culled, and 300,000 chickens at seven nearby farms are under transport restrictions.
Culling of laying hens tightens Japanese egg supply ahead of the year-end demand peak, which could push prices higher. If the outbreak spreads, Japanese demand for feed ingredients could also be affected.
