Since the UK's exit from the European Union, concerns have been raised by MEPs about the potential negative impact on the agricultural sector in 2022. This is due to the full implementation of post-Brexit tariffs and health procedures, especially if discussions on digitizing health certificates are not finalized. The impact could include increased supply delays and costs, particularly in the beef sector due to potential free trade agreements that may not meet European production standards. The digitization of health certificates, equalization of labeling systems, and excessive bureaucracy are key issues. The British Agricultural Trade Unions office in Brussels has reported a decrease in agri-food trade between the UK and EU since the Trade and Cooperation Agreement in 2020.
