China and South Korea Suspend Argentine Poultry Imports Amid Bird Flu; Chile's Sernac Probes Possible Chicken in Turkey Products

China has suspended imports of Argentine poultry products following a recent bird flu outbreak in Argentina. This suspension comes five months after China had lifted a previous ban on these imports. The Argentine government had temporarily halted poultry exports after confirming the avian influenza case at a commercial facility. South Korea has also suspended poultry imports from Argentina due to the same bird flu outbreak. In Chile, the National Consumer Service (Sernac) has initiated investigations into poultry product labeling, specifically regarding the possible inclusion of chicken in turkey breast products by companies Sopraval and Ariztía. The Chilean health authorities are gathering information on the sale of mixed turkey and chicken products, with Agrosuper attributing the issue to the avian flu situation in Brazil.
