Bird flu found in heart of US poultry region, prompting import restrictions from countries

2015-03-13 14:19:47| Food - Topix.net

Mexico, the biggest buyer of United States chicken, and other major countries imposed new import restrictions on Thursday after a virulent form of bird flu was found at the heart of America's poultry region. The virus' discovery in Arkansas is expected to prompt similar moves by up to 40 more countries, and the restrictions are likely to depress prices and hurt US poultry producers, economists said.
