Argentina has announced the reopening of beef exports, including canned beef, to China, effective from October 4, 2021. Initially, exports of categories D and E will be permitted without restrictions, though there are uncertainties regarding the inclusion of accumulated stocks in cold storage. This decision is seen as a partial and temporary solution to the unpredictability of the ban, which was imposed following the suspension of Brazilian beef due to mad cow disease. Despite the potential loss to producers, the move is expected to have positive implications for Argentina's foreign currency earnings, given the current shortage in the meat supply market in China due to suspensions in Brazil, Australia, and Argentina. The export of other demanded cuts like Garrón and Brazuelo is valued highly, with prices soaring by 42% from last year, indicating the market's demand despite the challenges.
