Argentina has suspended exports of poultry products after it confirmed the first case of highly pathogenic avian influenza in commercially farmed birds in the Rio Negro province, putting at risk a business that generates around $400 million annually, Buenos Aires Herald reported. If exports are suspended, the local market will be over-supplied and intensify problems for an industry that is already grappling with a lack of growth in domestic consumption and increasing costs due to drought.
