The Myanmar authorities are taking measures in
Mandalay region in a bid to prevent spread of bird flu which broke out in
Monywa, northwestern Sagaing region earlier this month by checking regional
main border gates, according to an official of the Department of Livestock
Breeding Friday
The
authorities are checking the delivery of chickens through Ayeyawaddy bridge
(Yadanarbon ) linking Mandalay and Sagaing and Yadanar Theinga bridge linking
Shwe Bo township and Singu township.
Farming
zones in the region have worked to prevent spread of bird flu.
At
present, chicken prices in the market stand high due to increasing deaths of
chicken amid the high temperature in summer.
According
to the Ministry of Health, bird flu occurred in 47 poultry farms owned by 29
breeders in Monywa and 23, 226 chickens were culled earlier this month. Enditem
