Denmark halts poultry exports from Funen island

COPENHAGEN, May 18 (Reuters) - Denmark has halted exports of poultry from Funen after birds on a smallholding farm on the Danish island tested positive for the H5 strain of avian flu, the Danish Ministry of Consumer Affairs said on Thursday.


The ministry said in a statement the outbreak may also force Denmark to halt all its poultry exports, not just those from the island.


Some 11 million chickens are produced on Funen annually, about 8 percent of the total Danish production.


This is Denmark's first case of H5 bird flu in domestic birds, however the deadly H5N1 strain has already been found in several wild birds.
