Mexico's meat exports, encompassing beef, pork, and chicken, saw a 7.9% decline in the first two months of 2024, as reported by the Agricultural Market Consulting Group (GCMA). However, the monetary value of these exports rose by 4.5% to $447.6 million. Despite the increase in income, Mexico still has a trade deficit of $615 million. Beef exports, in particular, decreased in volume but generated more income, surpassing $301 million. Beef imports, mainly from the US, Canada, and Nicaragua, surged by nearly 50%.
