    It was also the H5N8 strain, low pathogenic, says Serge Bousquet-Cassagne, president of the Chamber of Agriculture.

    It is a suspicion of bird flu again that has led to preventive slaughter. It concerns the whole breeding: 8000 ducks.

    A temporary control zone of 3 km limits the movements around the concerned farm in two communes: S?rignac-P?boudou and S?galas.

    It would be the H5N8 strain, low pathogenic. Diagnosis confirms by the Chamber of Agriculture.
