"It is envisaged over a period of 60 days destruction measures of infected birds, their products and the completion of the disinfection operations of the health services the place of slaughter attesting to their non-contamination," said the prefectural.

The Office of the Ministry of Animal Resources and Fisheries officially informed the Prefect of the existence of bird flu after analyzing samples taken on 24 July. The letter states that the farmer Dicko will be compensated.

However, operators in the sector say they are very concerned. One of them, , Adou B?ni? Kouam?, told AIP that psychosis has already seized the people and that their sales may suffer, because they can't deliver their products to Abidjan, in accordance with the regulations which prohibits the transport of poultry beyond the department.

The Southeast region Como? is the largest provider of broilers in Abidjan.
