On Monday (11/04), the Minister of Agriculture, Tereza Cristina, said that China has approved seven meat packing plants in the state of Santa Catarina for the export of pig offal.

Exports can start immediately, she said on Twitter, adding that the approvals were the result of negotiations during President Jair Bolsonaro’s visit to China last month.
