Argentine Minister of Agriculture, Livestock, and Fisheries Luis Miguel Etchevehere announced that the United States has enabled five more Argentine slaughterhouse plants to export beef to the country.
The United States Department of Agriculture Food Safety and Inspection Agency (FSIS/USDA) has published that the new authorized slaughterhouses are Quickfood SA, Logros SA, Forros-Beltrán SA, Azul Natural Beef SA, and Alberdi SA. With this announcement, there are 16 Argentine facilities authorized to export meat to the United States.
The announcement came at the 6th meeting of the Argentine – United States Joint Agribusiness Advisory Committee, where Luis Miguel Etchevehere met with US Under Secretary of Foreign Trade and International Agricultural Affairs, Ted Mc Kinney.
The United States reopened the market for Argentine boneless beef imports in November 2018 after 17 years of embargoes. The agreement now signed between the countries limits Argentine exports to 20,000 tons per year.
