"Impact on prices still unclear, but next two weeks will be critical"
"Turkeys this Christmas could be smaller after a second case of avian flu was confirmed yesterday in an Irish flock."
"It is still unclear what impact the outbreaks at farms in Co Meath and Co Carlow might have on turkey prices, but further cases could lead to a reduction in supply."
A second case of avian flu was confirmed yesterday in an Irish turkey flock. The two confirmed outbreaks are at farms in County Meath and County Carlow. Turkeys this Christmas could be smaller following the infections. The immediate impact on turkey prices remains unclear. Further confirmed cases could reduce overall turkey supply. The next two weeks will be critical in determining whether additional outbreaks occur and how supply chains respond. Farmers, processors and retailers will monitor disease spread closely to assess potential reductions in available birds and any resulting market effects on availability and pricing.
