Brazil, the world's largest poultry exporter, has confirmed its first outbreak of bird flu on a commercial farm. This development has led China, a major importer, to immediately ban shipments of Brazilian poultry, with other countries likely to follow suit. Brazil accounts for about 35% of global chicken meat exports, making this outbreak a significant threat to the international poultry market. The incident could disrupt global supply chains and impact prices worldwide. Authorities are monitoring the situation closely as they work to contain the outbreak and prevent further trade restrictions.
