Highly pathogenic avian influenza continues in MO
Highly pathogenic avian influenza continues to spread across poultry flocks in several Missouri counties.
Ag Director Chris Chinn tells Brownfield, “it came in with the wild migratory birds. We aren’t the only state impacted, but it’s hit the southwest pretty heavily.”
USDA says the latest HPAI confirmation was in Lawrence County, Missouri on February 10, affecting more than 14,000 commercial turkey breeder hens.
Other positive cases have been reported in turkey and broiler flocks across Barry, Newton, McDonald and Jasper Counties.
