Podcasts about avian flu

State officials are looking to curb Pennsylvania's ongoing outbreak of bird flu — the worst it’s seen in decades. The State Game Commission has joined efforts to help the Commonwealth address the most recent avian flu outbreak. During his annual State of the Union address Tuesday night President Donald Trump said he worked out a deal with energy-hungry data centers to build their own power plants. The facilities are expanding to accommodate the growth in artificial intelligence. Rising electricity costs are due in part to the increase in data centers. About 100 people protested last weekend outside the municipal building in the small Berks County township where ICE want to convert a warehouse into an immigration detention center. More than 100 of Pennsylvania’s rural volunteer fire companies are receiving more than $900,000 dollars in state grants to strengthen the state’s wildfire protection. More than two dozen PennDOT snowplows are heading to New England to help the region dig out of last weekend's blizzard. This weekend in York County, dozens of brave souls will take the Polar Plunge for a good cause. The Capital Area Polar Plunge is being held at Gifford Pinchot State Park in Lewisberry to benefit the Special Olympics in Pennsylvania. And a deep dive for anyone suffering from Olympic withdraw: There's a Pennsylvania connection to the U.S. Men's Hockey Team that you might not know about. Wilkes-Barre Native Teddy Richards was the equipment manager for the gold medal-winning team. And Richards started his career as a stick boy for the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins.

Mackerel will soon be disappearing from the shelves of Waitrose as the supermarket says it's 'taking a stand against overfishing'. In September last year the International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES), recommended that North-east Atlantic Mackerel catches should be cut by 70% to help rebuild stocks to a sustainable level. But four countries which fish for Mackerel in the North East Atlantic cut their quota for 2026 by just 48% compared to the previous year. As a result, Waitrose has decided to suspend sourcing from the end of April. Fishing organisations in Scotland say they are disappointed and feel they have been unfairly penalised because - they say - the UK has led the way in trying to secure sustainable fishing for Mackerel.Anna Hill reports from a Cromer seafood processor who's experiencing a drop in the availability of Crabs following fishing disruption due to wind farm construction. It's been a worrying winter for poultry farmers, with cases of avian flu in England, Scotland and Wales. The Pirbright Institute's Head of Avian Virology updates us on what he describes as the 'third worst ever' epidemic of high pathogenicity bird flu in the UK, and reflects on what might lie ahead over the spring and summer. Cambridge University's vet school will not be closing after all. The University's governing body has rejected proposals to cease taking new entrants.Presenter: Anna Hill Producer: Sarah Swadling

Production is steady. Prices dipped. But nearly 5 million birds are gone – and migration season is just getting started.BEEF: Harvest rose to 541K head, but we're still running well behind last year. Middle meats are inching higher, especially strips, while chucks soften and grinds slip again (for now). Production isn't growing. Plan accordingly.POULTRY: Production is up 2% year over year, but the early-year price run just stalled. Wings, breasts, and tenders dipped slightly. Meanwhile, avian flu hit hard again, and spring migration could make things interesting.GRAINS: Soy oil is moving higher for a second straight week, surprising given the supply. Corn slipped back, wheat flat. Right now, soy has the spotlight.PORK: Bellies climbed again to $138 and still look headed higher. The rest of the complex is steady and balanced. Nothing dramatic… yet.DAIRY: Dairy has direction. Block jumped, butter keeps recovering, barrel ticking up. Momentum is building.Savalfoods.com | Find us on Social Media: Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, LinkedIn

Beef is tight. Bellies are climbing. Birds are under watch. The seasonal shift may bring more than warmer weather.BEEF: Production is down 10% YTD, with last week at just 516K head. The smallest herd in 75 years keeps supply tight as spring demand builds. Strips and ribeyes look ready to lead a March run – and thin meats may feel it first.POULTRY: Production is up 2%, but hatch rates under 79% raise questions. Wings dip while breasts hold steady. Thirteen new avian flu cases hit 550K birds – just as migration ramps up.GRAINS: Soy keeps climbing on export deals and biofuel demand. Corn and wheat stay stuck. Three weeks into the rally, and now we see if it has legs.PORK: Bellies jumped to $146, nearing $150 faster than expected. Bacon will follow, and elevated pricing could stick into summer. The rest of pork remains a value, but for how long?DAIRY: Barrel up 5. Block up 6. Butter up 7. Dairy is clearly moving higher, and it doesn't look finished yet.Savalfoods.com | Find us on Social Media: Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, LinkedIn

Pennsylvania is working with the USDA to try and control the spread of Avian Flu across the Commonwealth's poultry industry. Many state employees’ conversations with artificial intelligence will likely remain shielded from public view — following a ruling this month from Pennsylvania’s open records agency. A new hospital is preparing to open in Northern York County. Meantime, a hospital in northern Pennsylvania, Bradford Regional Medical Center, will close its inpatient, emergency and long-term care services by mid-2026. The closures mark a continuing downward trend for Pennsylvania’s rural hospitals. A Juniata County hunter is being charged in connection with the shooting death of another hunter within his deer hunting party on December 2nd. As data centers are proposed and built across the state - and drawing backlash - new figures are emerging about their potential long-term costs. The Shapiro administration’s latest budget estimates show Pennsylvania could lose out on about $2 billion in revenue by mid-2031 due to a tax break that some lawmakers want to repeal.

Valentine's Day is here, and while roses get the spotlight, the real story is in the markets. Ribeyes and tenderloins are holding steady, strips keep climbing, pork bellies are inching higher, and poultry hasn't lost its upward momentum. Add in a little lift from soy and a steady dairy tone, and this week feels like a seasonal shift — not a surge, but a quiet build as we move from winter toward spring.BEEF: Harvest edged higher to 536K head. Middle meats are steady, strips keep climbing, and thin meats are gaining momentum earlier than usual. Grinds paused — but don't get too comfortable.POULTRY: Strong production and strong demand keep prices trending higher. Breasts and tenders lead, wings finally steady. Avian flu cases slowed, but the story isn't over.GRAINS: Soy is making a move thanks to biofuel demand. Corn is flat, wheat trying to find direction. Feels like the start of something — we'll see.PORK: Bellies climbed again to $135 and are building into spring. Loins still a value, butts and ribs inching up. Bacon buyers, take note.DAIRY: A mixed CME week — small moves in both directions. Nothing dramatic… yet.Savalfoods.com | Find us on Social Media: Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, LinkedIn

From tightening beef supplies and climbing poultry prices to the first real lift in pork bellies and a dairy market finding its footing, this week feels like a shift. Nothing is running away yet, but momentum is building, and the next few weeks could look very different.BEEF: Tight production is keeping beef supported, with strips still climbing and Valentine's Day putting a floor under ribeyes and tenderloins. With a shrinking herd, there may be more upward pressure ahead.POULTRY: Avian Flu losses jumped again, already lifting egg prices, while chicken continues its steady climb – and there's still room to run.GRAINS: Heavy supplies kept corn flat and wheat slightly lower, with soy oil's push higher stalling – but this story isn't over yet.PORK: Bellies finally moved higher and should keep climbing into spring, pulling bacon along with them. This run may just be getting started.DAIRY: Butter led another week of gains as the dairy market firmed up, and the momentum could continue.Savalfoods.com | Find us on Social Media: Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, LinkedIn

Markets are slowly building momentum as Valentine's Day demand begins to take shape. Beef inches higher, chicken keeps climbing, pork waits for its next move, dairy tests a rally, and grains remain quiet. The coming weeks will show whether this momentum sticks — or stalls.BEEF: Production pulled back last week as middle meats begin their seasonal climb toward Valentine's Day. With strips already charging higher and end cuts showing mixed signals, this market feels ready for its next move.POULTRY: Chicken prices keep pushing higher with no real resistance in sight. But a major jump in avian flu losses adds a new wildcard that could shift the story quickly.GRAINS: Grain markets continue drifting sideways, weighed down by ample supply. Until demand shows up in force, this quiet pattern looks set to continue.PORK: Bellies hesitated just as a rally seemed ready to start, leaving pork in value territory a bit longer. The question now is how long this pause really lasts.DAIRY: Dairy keeps rallying, but recent trading raises doubts about how strong this move really is. The next couple of weeks should reveal whether this run has legs.Savalfoods.com | Find us on Social Media: Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, LinkedIn

Winter's grip on the markets is starting to loosen. Beef has turned higher sooner than expected, chicken keeps climbing, pork begins its spring setup, dairy shows signs of life, and grains remain frozen in place. This early shift may be subtle — but it could shape the market mood for the weeks ahead.BEEF: The post-holiday slide is officially over, and beef is turning back up sooner than expected. Middle meats are leading the shift, with the rest of the complex quietly following. Any values left may not stick around long.POULTRY: Chicken keeps climbing as strong demand meets steady production. With avian flu still present and prices already moving, this market looks set to stay on the offensive for a bit.GRAINS: Grains remain stuck in neutral, weighed down by plenty of supply and no clear catalyst. Until something changes, this market looks content to wait.PORK: The window for cheap bellies has closed, and bacon prices are setting up for a steady spring climb. Pork still offers value — but the direction is starting to shift.DAIRY: Butter finally found its footing, and dairy may be ready to turn the corner. Whether this is the start of a rebound or just a pause is the next story to watch.Savalfoods.com | Find us on Social Media: Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, LinkedIn

January is doing what it does best – pulling markets in opposite directions. Beef splits between falling middle meats and rising end cuts, chicken prices wake up, pork stays a value, grains soften, and dairy pushes into rare territory. These early-year moves may look quiet, but they're setting up what comes next. BEEF: The New Year split continues — middle meats are sliding while end cuts quietly climb. With Valentine's Day approaching and demand holding steady, this market is setting up for its next turn sooner than it looks.POULTRY: Chicken prices are officially on the move, led by breasts with wings and tenders following close behind. Add a slipping hatch rate and ongoing avian flu cases, and this value market may not stay cheap for long.GRAINS: Grain prices took another step lower as supply keeps growing faster than demand. Great news for feeders, but these markets are still searching for a spark.PORK: Pork remains one of the strongest values on the board, even as prices begin to inch higher. With steady production ahead, this quiet strength could be telling.DAIRY: Dairy keeps pushing lower into territory we haven't seen since the pandemic. Whether this creates short-term opportunity or signals something deeper is the question worth watching.Savalfoods.com | Find us on Social Media: Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, LinkedIn

The calendar flipped, and the markets followed. Beef is splitting seasonally, chicken is finally waking up, pork remains a value with signs of strength, grains won't budge, and dairy keeps testing new lows. This is the quiet part of the year where small shifts now can mean big moves later.BEEF: The New Year reset is in full swing — middle meats are sliding fast while roasts and grinds quietly push higher. This seasonal split is right on schedule. The question is which side of the market you want to be on before January wraps up.POULTRY: After weeks of waiting, chicken prices are finally turning higher, led by breasts and now wings as the playoff season kicks in. With avian flu still very much in play, this market may not give buyers much time to react.GRAINS: Grain prices remain stuck in neutral, offering continued relief for protein markets. Until something breaks the pattern, this quiet stretch looks firmly in place.PORK: Pork remains one of the best values on the board, but signs of strength are starting to show. Bellies are holding steady for now — the next move feels closer than it looks.DAIRY: Butter has hit a five-year low while cheese shows hints of stabilizing. It's a rare pricing moment that may not stick around long.Savalfoods.com | Find us on Social Media: Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, LinkedIn

The holiday push is wrapping up, and the markets are starting to show their hand. Beef is splitting in two directions, poultry feels steady but uneasy, pork stays a value, grains won't budge, and dairy may finally be finding a floor. With January right around the corner, the next two weeks could set the tone for everything that follows.BEEF: Holiday pricing is making its final stand, and the beef market is starting to split in two directions. Middle meats are finally easing while other cuts quietly set up their next move. Two weeks from now, this market could look very different.POULTRY: Chicken finishes the year well supplied and steady, but this calm feels temporary. With avian flu still popping up and no real downside left, the next move is likely up – the only question is when.GRAINS: Soy export news finally surfaced, but the grain markets barely blinked. Corn, soy, and wheat remain stuck in neutral, waiting for something – anything – to break the stalemate.PORK: Bellies slide again, keeping bacon firmly in value territory heading into the new year. With strong production and solid inventories, pork remains one of the quiet winners on the board.DAIRY: Dairy prices are sending mixed signals, hinting the recent slide may be running out of steam. Whether this is the bottom or just another pause is the next story to watch.Savalfoods.com | Find us on Social Media: Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, LinkedIn

Holiday demand reminded the markets who's in charge — beef hit rare production levels while premium cuts held firm. As poultry and grains wait it out, pork stays a value and dairy keeps sliding into bargain territory. With the calendar about to flip, the real question is what holds… and what finally gives in the new year.BEEF: Holiday demand pushed production to a rare 600K head, but premium cuts are still commanding top dollar. The big question now – have middle meats finally hit their seasonal ceiling, and what happens next when the calendar flips?POULTRY: Chicken pricing stays calm and steady as we head toward the new year. But with avian flu cases climbing again, could this quiet market be one headline away from changing fast?GRAINS: Corn, soy, and wheat continue to tread water, moving just enough to stay interesting. Until something breaks the pattern, this market looks content to wait it out.PORK: Bellies bounced back this week, but the pork market feels stuck in neutral. With plenty of value still reminding buyers why pork stays on the menu, does this calm stretch continue into January?DAIRY: Cheese keeps sliding while butter barely blinks, turning dairy into one of the best bargains on the board. The question now – how much lower can it really go before demand steps in?Savalfoods.com | Find us on Social Media: Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, LinkedIn

Hear updates on two local court cases, a Caymanian detained by ICE, biosecurity measures in West Bay related to an ongoing Avian Flu outbreak and the DOE's sea itch advisory.

Middle meats are the gift that keeps getting pricier, and buyers are wondering whether the peak is finally here. Meanwhile, poultry stays affordable, pork remains a value, and dairy drops to holiday-baking lows — making this week's markets as mixed as a stocking full of surprises.BEEF: Holiday pricing is testing its limits, and while middle meats are sky-high, the market may finally be running out of steam. Chucks, rounds, and thin meats are slipping, and production numbers continue to reveal a shrinking cattle supply heading into 2026. Are we finally approaching the turn — or just pausing before another surge?POULTRY: Chicken remains the protein value hero of the season, with production up and pricing steady across wings, breasts, and tenders. But with avian flu cases continuing to creep in, could this calm be short-lived?GRAINS: Grain prices are stuck in neutral, with corn holding firm and soy struggling to spark a rally. Something has to give — the question is when, and what will finally move the needle?PORK: Bacon buyers rejoice — bellies are still a bargain at $118. But a new African Swine Flu outbreak in Spain could scramble global pork demand overnight. Is the export domino about to fall?DAIRY: Cheese keeps sliding with no clear bottom in sight, while butter flirts with a small bounce at record-low pandemic-era pricing. Is this dip a buy signal — or just the midpoint of a bigger correction?Savalfoods.com | Find us on Social Media: Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, LinkedIn

As we head into Thanksgiving, the markets are serving up a mixed plate — some items are easing, others are heating up, and a few might burn your budget. Whether it's a gravy train or a little holiday pain depends on the protein. Let's dig in and see what's really simmering this week.BEEF: Middle meats are heating up fast for the holidays, with ribeyes, strips, and tenderloins pushing higher and showing no signs of slowing. Chucks and rounds are softening a bit, but ground beef is still gaining strength — the question is how high these premiums will run through December.POULTRY: Chicken remains steady despite massive production levels, with wings, breasts, and tenders barely moving. But after 23 new avian flu cases this week, will this calm hold through the winter migration?GRAINS: Soy tried to rally and stalled, corn slipped, and wheat held steady — nothing seems able to spark this market. With winter wheat nearly fully planted, the real question is what it will take to break this grain gridlock.PORK: Bellies finally broke lower, dropping $22 to $118, and this softer market may carry well into December. With strong production and plenty of supply, will pork remain the best value on the protein board?DAIRY: Dairy keeps sliding, with block, barrel, and butter all moving lower again — and butter now at its cheapest point since 2021. The big question: will low holiday pricing spark demand, or is there still more room to fall?Savalfoods.com | Find us on Social Media: Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, LinkedIn

Susan Wilkinson of Susie's Duck Sanctuary on Oʻahu reflects on having to cull her flock due to avian flu; Monica Toguchi Ryan, the owner of the longtime restaurant Highway Inn, on staying in business amid the pandemic, tariffs, and rising minimum wage

Markets are shifting as the holidays approach — beef heats up with middle meats climbing, chicken stays steady, and pork holds its value. Grains stay quiet, and dairy continues to slide with butter finally leveling off. The big question: is this the start of the holiday run-up, or just the calm before real volatility hits?BEEF: Middle meats are stealing the show as ribeyes, tenderloins, and strips push higher into the holidays. With grinds leading the pack and demand building, this market's heating up fast — the only question is how high it'll climb before December cools it down.POULTRY: Chicken remains steady and well supplied, prices barely moving either way. But with another wave of avian flu reports and migration season still underway, how long can this calm market last?GRAINS: Corn, soy, and wheat all dipped slightly after last week's optimism faded. Good news for feeders — not so much for farmers — but could holiday demand finally stir this sleepy grain market?PORK: Bellies are steady around $140, keeping bacon lovers happy and buyers relaxed. Pork remains one of the best protein values out there — but how long will this balanced market hold?DAIRY: Butter finally stopped sliding, but cheese keeps melting down with barrels and blocks still dropping. With prices this low, could we be setting up for a holiday dairy rebound?Savalfoods.com | Find us on Social Media: Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, LinkedIn

There's been a lot of fear and confusion around the avian flu and how it might affect our cats… especially those on a raw food diet. In this episode, we sit down with Sabrina, the founder of RAWR cat food, to talk about her recent experience with the FDA and what she's learned through it all. She'll shed light on what's really happening with the avian flu, what cat parents need to know, and why understanding the facts - not the fear - is so important when it comes to feeding our cats a fresh, species-appropriate diet.If you've been wondering whether it's safe to feed raw right now, this is a podcast you don't want to miss.

On Monday, compulsory housing orders will begin for all poultry and captive birds after Avian flu outbreaks on turkey farms in Meath and Carlow. Eithne Dodd speaks to Kildare-based turkey farmer Billy Gray, and we then hear from Rebecca Tierney, Poultry Advisor with Teagasc.

Poultry Farmers are warned this winter is on course to be among the worst for Avian Flu. This week all poultry in England and Northern Ireland was ordered inside after a number of new cases. The Pirbright Institute's head of Avian Virology explains why the H5N1 strain of bird flu has become more able to spread, describing it as 'almost a super strain'.A household name in food processing says it's worried about future supplies of raw materials, because farmers confidence is so poor. McCain is the single biggest buyer of British potatoes. It commissioned an online survey of 200 farmers from across the industry, called Farmdex. It found that 51 per cent of respondents had considered leaving farming in the past year, while 40 percent believe they may be forced to leave the industry in the next decade due to economic pressures. McCain is calling on the Government and other food industry players to take steps to improve stability for farmers.And, we visit a small company producing seeds for joyously different varieties of veg from Wrinkled Crinkled Crumpled Cress to the Musselburgh Leek.

As the holidays close in, markets are showing their seasonal split — beef buyers are getting bold while poultry prices cool and dairy keeps sliding. With soy stirring and pork settling, everyone's stocking up for the end-of-year rush… but which way will prices break when the wrapping paper comes off?BEEF: Holiday buying is kicking in and prices are heading higher across the board, with ribeyes, tenderloins, and even strips taking off. Demand is rising, supply isn't budging, and this market looks set to climb straight into December — the only question is how fast.POULTRY: Chicken remains steady with strong production and flat pricing — barely a penny either way. But with fresh avian flu cases popping up again, will this calm market hold through the holidays?GRAINS: Soy finally woke up on export news, with wheat following higher, while corn slipped a touch. If global buying picks up, could this be the start of that grain momentum we've been waiting for?PORK: Bellies pulled back to $140 after last week's spike, making now a great time for bacon buyers. Pork remains one of the best values in protein — but will seasonal demand tighten things up heading into winter?DAIRY: Last week's bump vanished fast — cheese and butter dropped again, turning dairy into a surprising value play. The question now is whether holiday demand can stop this slide or if prices keep melting.Savalfoods.com | Find us on Social Media: Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, LinkedIn

Markets are starting to settle after weeks of decline. Beef finds its bottom, chicken holds steady, pork pops, and dairy and grains edge higher. The big question — is this the foundation for a rebound, or just a pause before the next dip?BEEF: After weeks of decline, the market has found its floor. Ribeyes, tenderloins, and strips are on the rise again — the question is how fast this rebound will move.POULTRY: Chicken prices have steadied after big drops, with only minor movement expected. But as avian flu cases climb again, how long can this calm last?GRAINS: Talk of a new trade deal with China pushed corn, soy, and wheat higher. If exports pick up, could this be the start of a grain rally?PORK: Bellies spiked $20 to $151, catching the market off guard. Is this a one-week blip or the start of a seasonal climb?DAIRY: Cheese is moving higher, butter finally holding steady. The big question — can demand keep this rally alive with supply still strong?Savalfoods.com | Find us on Social Media: Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, LinkedIn

Almost a year after an avian flu outbreak was detected on an ostrich farm in rural British Columbia, the fate of the flock remains in the crosshairs of a culture war over public health policy.Plans to euthanize the remaining birds by Canadian authorities are on pause as the Supreme Court of Canada considers the case. The cull order catalyzed fierce protest by the farm owners and their hundreds of supporters, backed by top White House health officials, decrying what they see as government overreach.Host Caryn Ceolin is joined by Dr. Angela Rasmussen, virologist at the University of Saskatchewan, to discuss why the case became a flashpoint, and whether the government's ability to enforce public health policy is at risk.

Chicken prices have hit their lowest level in two years, making it the week's biggest story. Beef's slowdown continues, pork holds steady, and dairy drifts lower — but poultry steals the spotlight as the market's best deal.BEEF: Prices are still drifting lower, though the declines are slowing. Middle meats are already ticking back up, hinting that the bottom may be near — but just how long before demand heats things up again?POULTRY: Chicken prices keep sliding, with boneless skinless breasts hitting their lowest point in two years. As demand cools and avian flu flares, the question is: how much longer can this market remain this soft?GRAINS: Harvests are booming and inventories are stacked, leaving corn, soy, and wheat all stuck in neutral. With talk of a biofuel push on the horizon, could soy finally be what shakes this market awake?PORK: Pork is steady, bellies holding at $134 while production rises with cooler weather. Processors may soon start stockpiling for spring, but for now, is this the calm before the climb?DAIRY: Last week's brief rally fizzled, with cheese and butter slipping again. Butter remains a seasonal bargain, but the question is — can this quiet market stay this smooth through the holidays?Savalfoods.com | Find us on Social Media: Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, LinkedIn
