💨 Abstract

Over 4 lakh chickens have died in West Godavari, Andhra Pradesh, over the past 45 days. The Animal Husbandry Department is testing samples to determine the cause. Officials suspect avian influenza, but farmers are also accused of neglecting biosecurity measures and dumping dead birds in canals and streets. The department is conducting sensitization meetings and sending vets to farms to address the issue.
