Japan confirmed its second highly pathogenic avian influenza outbreak of the season at a poultry farm in Asahi City, Chiba Prefecture, housing about 40,000 chickens. Authorities are culling about 40,000 laying hens and have set a 3 km movement restriction zone and a 10 km shipping restriction zone.
The ministry said eating chicken or eggs poses no infection risk under current conditions.
Culling of 40,000 laying hens removes a small amount of Japanese egg supply, while the restriction zones limit local poultry movements. The effect on feed demand and prices is small unless outbreaks spread to larger farms.
