One could also argue that the USDA killed like 12 million chickens under Biden.
Clearly not enough. Bird Flu kills 90% of infected birds, if culls and management had been more efficient then it wouldn't have spread as much as it has.
I believe even as far as January over 134 Million poultry in the USA had perished and another 111 Million birds between February and March.
Canada, despite sharing borders and markets, has seen much lower casualty rates because their farms are smaller, about 25k birds average compared to US farms as large as 1 Million birds.
Whatevers going on in the USA is because of lack of government intervention, and it absolutely will continue to get worse under Trump.
Luckily there have been no new major outbreaks in March, leading to a decline in price, for now.
