Jeonbuk Province has sent an initial response team to the farm to implement measures such as access control and disinfection, and plans to cull the poultry.

An official from Jeonbuk Province urged farmers to strictly adhere to quarantine rules, including income and exit of vehicles and personnel, boot replacement, and daily disinfection of the inside and outside of the barn.

[AFL Column] The Year 2026 as a Pivotal Year for Agricultural Policy Transformation

Now, agriculture should not remain merely a primary industry that produces food. Although the domestic and international situations this year are also difficult to predict, an analysis of the New Year messages from the heads of agricultural-related organizations, including the Minister of the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs, the Chairman of the Special Committee on Agriculture, Fisheries, and Rural Areas, and the Director-General of the Rural Development Administration, shows that agriculture is a "core strategic industry" that supports the nation's existence.
