Avian influenza is hanging on as we head into fall. The USDA has reported 26 outbreaks just this month alone.

The largest outbreak was found on an egg farm in Ohio with three million hens affected. Nationwide, more than 44 million birds in domestic flocks have died or been culled due to the disease this year, making it the worst outbreak since 2015, which killed 50 million birds.

Where the Food Comes From
The goal of “Where the Food Comes From” is as simple as its name implies — host Chip Carter takes you along on the journey of where our food comes from — and we don’t just mean to the supermarket (though that’s part of the big picture!). But beyond where it comes from, how it gets there, and all the links in the chain that make that happen.
