Mexico to Keep Partial Ban on U.S. Beef
- Share via
Mexico will maintain its partial ban on U.S. beef imports because it is not convinced that U.S. meat plants have taken sufficient measures to combat mad cow disease, the agriculture ministry said.
Javier Trujillo, the ministry’s animal and plant health chief, said Mexican officials who visited U.S. plants in March were unhappy at methods used for deboning beef.
Mexico will maintain its ban on imports of U.S. boned beef, meat for pet food and live cattle after the visits to U.S. plants, Trujillo said.
