CALIFORNIA CAN ONCE AGAIN SHIP OFF POULTRY TO JAPAN. JAPAN IS LIFTING SOME OF ITS BANS ON IMPORTS OF LIVE POULTRY AND POULTRY MEAT.
THAT COVERS CALIFORNIA AND SEVEN OTHER STATES THAT WERE UNDER A BAN BECAUSE OF THE AVIAN INFLUENZA.
BUT RESTRICTIONS STILL REMAIN ON LIVE POULTRY AND POULTRY PRODUCTS FROM SEVEN OTHER STATES.
JAPAN’S MOVE FOLLOWS A SIMILAR MOVE LIFTING BANS ON AMERICAN POULTRY BY CANADA EARLIER LAST WEEK.
