NEW YORK — Rabobank has published a new report on the global poultry industry, looking at the impact of avian influenza outbreaks across the sector.
In the report, the bank's Food & Agribusiness Research team says that pressure from the avian influenza (AI), or bird flu, is further spreading across the globe, with new outbreaks in Asia, Europe and North America.
"Avian flu is further spreading across the globe and could affect global trade streams, especially as the virus has moved further in Europe to Hungary, and in the U.S. to central states like Minnesota, Missouri and Arkansas," says. . .
