Mexico Eases Ban on Beef From the U.S.
- Share via
Mexico partially lifted its ban on U.S. beef imports, announcing that boneless cuts from animals less than 30 months old and veal from animals less than 9 months old could be imported.
The government had imposed a ban Dec. 24, the day after a single case of mad-cow disease was reported in Washington state. Mexico has been the second-largest foreign market for U.S. beef.
