Listen back: Local poultry farmer on bird flu. A local poultry farmer worries that the disease is in "the heartland" of poultry in Ireland.
Co. Cavan farmer Brendan Soden is the Irish Farmers' Association's poultry vice-chairman. It comes following a third case of bird flu was confirmed in a commercial turkey flock in Clontibret last night.
He told Northern Sound that there is a stakeholder meeting this afternoon, where the department will provide an update at this time.
Mr. Soden told Maitiú Monaghan the spread of the disease is upsetting for local poultry farmers.
