MUMBAI/TOKYO (Reuters) - Asia’s chicken farmers are confronting the region’s worst bird flu outbreak in years, with the deadly virus affecting farms stretching from Japan to India, roiling some poultry prices and showing no signs of easing.
More than 20 million chickens have been destroyed in South Korea and Japan since November. The highly pathogenic H5N8 virus last week reached India, the world’s No. 6 producer, and has already been reported in 10 states.

Asian poultry farmers battling against bird flu
Asian poultry farmers continue to suffer from the hardest hitting bird flu outbreak in years. Reuters reports that there is no end in sight yet.
Bird flu is common in Asia at this time of year due to migratory bird patterns, but new strains of the virus have evolved, leading to the culling of 20 million chickens in South Korea and Japan in the past 3 months. According to an Indian animal health expert and former advisor to the UN’s Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) Mohinder Oberoi, this is “one of the worst outbreaks ever in India.” The virus was reported there in early January. “The sudden drop in demand and prices compounds the woes of millions of small poultry farmers in an industry that only recently started to recover from the coronavirus outbreak-led disruption that hit sales during 2020,” Reuters reports.
