  We present the results of a combined fit of the reactor antineutrino rates
and the Daya Bay measurement of $\sigma_{f,235}$ and $\sigma_{f,239}$. The
combined fit leads to a better determination of the two cross sections per
fission: $\sigma_{f,235} = 6.29 \pm 0.08$ and $\sigma_{f,239} = 4.24 \pm 0.21 $
in units of $10^{-43} \, \text{cm}^2 / \text{fission}$, with respective
uncertainties of about $1.2\%$ and $4.9\%$. Since the respective deviations
from the theoretical cross sections per fission are $2.5\sigma$ and
$0.7\sigma$, we conclude that, if the reactor antineutrino anomaly is not due
to active-sterile neutrino oscillations, it is likely that it can be solved
with a revaluation of the $^{235}\text{U}$ reactor antineutrino flux. However,
the $^{238}\text{U}$, $^{239}\text{Pu}$, and $^{241}\text{Pu}$ fluxes, which
have larger uncertainties, could also be significantly different from the
theoretical predictions.
