Argentina and Mexico have reached an agreement on the health certificate required for beef exports to Mexico, marking a significant step towards the commencement of Argentine beef exports to the North American country. This agreement, which follows over eight years of negotiations, allows Mexico to open its market to Argentine beef, effective November 11. The final step before exports can begin is the agreement between the health services on the animal health requirements of the health certificate. This development also enables 22 processing plants in Argentina to export bovine meat products to Mexico.
