During the period 1 st<\/sup>-18 th<\/sup> October 2022, circa 315,000 turkeys and 17,000 geese have been affected (died and culled) because of AI.<\/p>We recognise that these outbreaks are very distressing for the individual turkey and geese farmers and businesses affected. However, the overall impact on food supply is relatively small, with approximately 10 million turkeys and 200,000 geese usually sold in the United Kingdom over the Christmas period.<\/p> Defra's objective in tackling any outbreak of Avian Influenza is to eradicate the disease as quickly as possible. Our approach considers the latest ornithological, epidemiological, veterinary and other scientific advice. Where necessary we are also able to declare Avian Influenza Prevention Zones (AIPZ) and mandatory housing measures within AIPZs to limit the spread of the disease.<\/p> Effective biosecurity combined with good flock management and husbandry practices is key to ensuring good health and welfare for all farmed animals and to limit the spread and eradication of this disease. Biosecurity guidance<\/a> and a biosecurity self-assessment checklist<\/a> have been published by Defra to assist all bird keepers in instigating and maintaining good biosecurity including compliance with the mandatory AIPZ measures.<\/p>"}

Defra analysis shows that the exact impact will vary depending on the characteristics of the individual household, such as the age of the occupants. The impact will also be determined by the products the individual household purchases and the measures taken to protect against increased costs - for instance, switching to own-brand or value products.<\/p> Food prices are set individually by businesses and are influenced by the competitive market they work in and the cost pressures they face.

Recent cost pressures in supply chains have led to food price inflation and we continue to monitor food prices using inflation statistics published by the Office for National Statistics.<\/p> Food prices are set individually by businesses and are influenced by the competitive market they work in and the cost pressures they face. It is not for HM Government to set retail food prices nor to comment on day-to-day commercial decisions by companies.<\/p> However, my Department continues to regularly engage with food retailers to explore ways in which they can support households by ensuring that affordable food remains available by, for example, maintaining value ranges, price matching, price freezing measures and the use of loyalty card offers.<\/p>"}
