Peru is making significant progress in finalizing the export of beef and pork to China in the coming months. The country has been in negotiations with China on phytosanitary protocols, leveraging its status as free from foot and mouth disease.
Peru's Agriculture Minister stated that beef exports to China could provide a $3-4 billion boost to the Peruvian economy over the next five years. The upcoming visit of Chinese President Xi Jinping to Peru is expected to further advance these trade discussions, with the potential to commence beef exports as early as next year[1][2][3][4].
