Argentine beef exports in September saw a decline of 2% in volume and 5.4% in revenue compared to the same month in 2021, largely due to lower purchases from the European Union, Israel, Chile, and the United States, as well as a drop in international prices. Despite this, the first nine months of 2022 still showed positive results with a 9.4% increase in volume and a 36.2% increase in revenue, largely due to increased exports to China. However, the outlook for the latter half of 2022 and 2023 is uncertain due to economic challenges in China and Europe, the war in Ukraine, and the strength of the dollar, with the USDA projecting a decrease in China's beef imports by 10% in 2023 and increased competition from Brazil.
