    Chicken exports are returning to normal after a bird flu outbreak in Otago last year

    Chicken exports are returning to normal after a bird flu outbreak in Otago last year

    21 April 2025
    Last December, New Zealand experienced its first confirmed case of avian influenza on an Otago egg farm and thousands of chickens were culled.

    While the outbreak was contained to the Hillgrove farm, measures were taken to prevent further spread, including surveillance and temporary suspension of chicken exports.

    A Ministry of Primary Industry spokesperson says good progress is being made to restore trade since the ban, with around 300 million dollars or 75 percent of trade in poultry products recovered to date.
