Avian Flu Takes A Toll on Turkey
Manage episode 340695290 series 3011013
Last week we had reports of 390K birds removed from the food supply, mostly turkeys, a worrying event and hopefully not a trend. BUT – it is a trend. This week we have new reports removing 3.1 million birds – 3 million egg laying chickens in Ohio and another 80K turkeys. Seems we may be getting a double dose of bird flu this year. Fall migration will be starting soon and this is not a great way to finish the year. Expect an already tight supply to get tighter and prices move higher. So far this year there have been 43.8 million birds removed from the food supply. Looking at chicken, were the availability is strong, no avian flu reports, plenty of product, good pricing.
