Suriname Poultry Group Partners with Government on Bird Flu Response

Suriname's Poultry Sector Association (APSS) and the Ministry of Agriculture agreed to strengthen biosecurity and reporting after H5 avian flu hit local poultry farms. Samples will be sent abroad for variant identification, with results shared with the industry group, while officials assess damage at affected farms.

Why it matters: Foreign H5 outbreak with no stated US trade impact, so it carries no direct operational consequence for US producers.
