BC chicken farmers are part of a connected, informed system. BC Chicken’s twice-monthly e-newsletters share industry news, policies, response notices, standards, and other grower information to keep the sector consistent and accountable. Learn more: bcchicken.ca/e-newsletters/

Governance is essential in a regulated food system. Effective September 1, 2026, the BC Chicken Marketing Board’s composition will change, including three registered grower members elected by registered growers. Oversight and accountability build reliability and public trust.

Supply management keeps BC chicken local and reliable. BC Chicken’s mandate highlights the importance of food safety, animal welfare, risk management, and public trust. Together, these responsibilities support a system built on planning, standards, and accountability.

Food security starts on the farm. Investments in biosecurity technology help BC poultry farmers protect flocks, reduce animal health risks, and support the local food supply families rely on. Protecting flocks strengthens food security and BC’s food economy.

When a chicken health concern emerges, the response is built around quick action, prevention, and shared expertise. BC farmers, veterinarians, researchers, processors, and industry partners all play a role in protecting flock health.

Wild birds can carry avian influenza, which is why biosecurity remains a year-round focus on BC chicken farms. BC guidance emphasizes monitoring, safe reporting, and precautions around sick or dead wild birds. Prevention and consistent farm practices protect flock health.

Before a new flock arrives, BC chicken growers clean and disinfect barns as part of strict on-farm food safety and animal care programs. Enhanced protocols add another layer of prevention, helping support biosecurity. Read more from BC Chicken: bcchicken.ca/news/enhanced-c…
