Inside the farm where the chickens are raised, there are busy people in white suits.

Large trucks also wait at the entrance of the farm.

The reason emergency disposal work was started on this farm was because a nearby duck farm was diagnosed with highly pathogenic AI.

The emergency elimination targets more than 590,000 chickens and quails reared within 3 km of the farm where the highly pathogenic AI was produced.

The quarantine authorities have restricted movement to all poultry farms in the Cheonan area for a week and started emergency inspections.
