Hickman's Egg Ranch loses 95% of its chickens to bird flu: What's next
As one of Arizona's largest egg producers, the spreading illness will lead to increased prices and lost jobs, says an ASU supply chain expert.
In this story published June 2, 2025, on FOX 10 Phoenix:
There will be approximately, in my estimation, 300–500 jobs that are lost because Hickman's farms are going to be shut down for two years, as they have mentioned. So, the 300–500 jobs will have a ripple effect on the economies of Buckeye, overall, looking at Arizona.
