Acorn Blogs’s post on Chicken Contingency focuses on the steps taken by the Indian government and the steps that needs to be taken further to stop the H5N1 virus from spreading.



As said by Niraj:

The contingency plans have all been worked out - the challenge is in their implementation, by all concerned parties at all level. It is difficult to estimate or control the actions of the informal fowl breeders. Addressing the risk posed by backyard chickens will be tougher given the socio-economic conditions of the breeders, who are often small farmers. The time for political resolve is coming.
