Canada authorized imports of fresh beef and pork from Brazil, announced the Federal Government on the 14th through the minister of Agriculture, Livestock and Supply, Tereza Cristina.

Beef exports, for example, are now allowed to all states that vaccinate their herds against foot-and-mouth disease, in addition to Santa Catarina, the first state to eradicate the disease without vaccination. The remaining states that had this status recognized last year still need to undergo a Canadian evaluation process.

In the case of pork, on the other hand, only slaughterhouses in Santa Catarina are authorized to export to Canada due to the state’s status as a foot-and-mouth-free state, in addition to regular swine fever and African swine fever. The Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock and Supply (Mapa) has already filed a petition for Paraná and Rio Grande do Sul to be recognized free of these three diseases.
