Highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) under current conditions
poses a major risk to human and animal health. Efforts to contain
the disease are therefore in national and global interest. As the most
widely practiced control methods for poultry involve culling birds
that are infected or in regions immediately around infected animals,
the most common practice to ensure the cooperation of owners
of birds is to compensate them for the culling of their animals to
achieve this public goal. Early identification of HPAI and the immediate
culling of diseased or suspected animals are critical elements
of reducing the risk of the disease spreading. The international community
and national governments have responded to this challenge
by establishing funding mechanisms to enable compensation to assist
in this strategy.
