B.C. allocates $2.5-million to reduce avian flu risk on Fraser Valley poultry farms

August 15, 2025

British Columbia says it will be providing $2.5-million in funding that will allow about 75 poultry farms in the Fraser Valley to upgrade their barns to reduce the risk of avian flu.

The Agriculture Ministry says in a news release that the flu can enter barns through airflow, water sources and other means and, despite increased measures, there have been about 200 outbreaks in the Fraser Valley and Lower Mainland since 2022.
