Bird flu has been detected again in Hierden (municipality of Harderwijk, province of Gelderland).
This time, the infection occurs at a duck breeding farm.
To prevent the spread of the virus, the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries, Food Security and Nature (LVVN) has decided to have the approximately 9,500 animals at the location culled by the Netherlands Food and Consumer Product Safety Authority (NVWA).
This farm in Hierden has been culled three times previously due to a bird flu infection: twice in 2022 and once in 2025.
