Increased exports are an important objective for South Africa ‘s poultry industry. But South Africa cannot export enough to make up for the massive volumes of imported chicken, especially predatory imports.
To protect consumers Hong Kong has suspended the import of poultry meat and products including eggs from parts of Europe and Asia as a result of outbreaks of highly pathogenic H5 avian influenza.
