SAO PAULO (Reuters) -Brazilian Agriculture Minister Carlos Favaro said on Thursday that the European Union has recognized Brazil as bird-flu free.

The recognition "will allow the resumption of chicken meat exports to the bloc," Favaro wrote in a post on X.

Brazil reported a bird flu outbreak in May, which made several countries impose restrictions on its chicken exports.

The agriculture ministry did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
