1 WEEKLY POULTRY NEWS INTERNATIONAL NEWS 8 th DECEMBER 2017 THE POULTRY ASSOCIATION OF ZAMBIA SA s poultry industry and bird keepers can finally sigh with relief, but they must be ready to act next winter. SA has turned the corner in fighting the deadly H5N8 strain of bird flu in commercial flocks, with outbreaks under control and the disease on the wane across the country. While the poultry industry, health authorities and consumers sigh with relief, it is important to guard against complacency, as the disease has not yet been eradicated, particularly in wild birds and ostrich enterprises. Surveillance in this area is continuing, although the disease seems to be waning in wild birds. Compared with other countries that experienced similar H5N8 outbreaks, SA has emerged relatively stronger, thanks to collaborative efforts aimed at preventing the disease from spreading. In June, the outbreak of the H5N8 strain of avian influenza was detected in a commercial poultry facility in Mpumalanga. Further outbreaks occurred in other provinces, with recorded outbreaks peaking in September. Of the 96 outbreaks reported since June 2017 in commercial, caged and wild birds in SA, 64 were in the Western Cape, 14 in Gauteng, 11 in Mpumalanga, two each in the Eastern Cape, Free State and North West, and a single case in KwaZulu-Natal. More than 4-million birds have been culled. The last outbreak in North West was in early October, and the Western Cape agriculture department reported on November 8 that no further incidences had been recorded a good sign from the country s hardest-hit province. While the broiler population the main source of chicken has been affected, infected birds have been mostly layers (egg producers) and wild birds such as ducks and even pigeons. Although the outbreak has cost the industry hundreds of millions of rand, there have also been other negative implications for small businesses, emerging farmers and consumers, who felt the effects too, with eggs increasing in price. Source: The Government of the Republic of Zambia through the Ministry of Fisheries and Livestock in conjunction with the Central Statistics Office will embark on undertaking the Livestock Census. The purpose of the Livestock census is to provide a benchmark upon which the future surveys in the Livestock sub-sector will be based. This will also form the basis for planning policy formulation and policy implementation. The census will cover all the districts in the country and the focus will be on poultry, fish farming, honey production and livestock. One of the objectives of this important event will be provide statistics which can be used to determine the deficit or surplus status of different types of Livestock in Zambia and also to measure the gross value added and other indicators of the livestock subsector and its contribution to the economy. The outbreak of the avian influenza in South Africa is still a challenge and so far 36 outbreaks have been reported. To contain this disease, all the poultry farmers are being urged to undertake the following measures. Report any abnormal deaths of chickens and guinea fowls or any other birds to the nearest
2 Veterinary Services Office. Ensure that you avoid interactions between the domestic wild birds and animals. Ensure that you practice high level of biosecurity and hygiene which include preventing any contacts with domesticated or wild animals, mechanical vectors or fomites. For any suspected mortalities please contact any nearest department under the Ministry of Fisheries and Livestock. For more information please download the full article on the PAZ website.

Commercial banks quoted the currency of Africans second largest copper producer at ZMK per dollar, weaker than the a week ago.
