El Salvador begins receiving beef from Argentina

The first shipment of refrigerated beef of Argentine origin has just arrived in El Salvador, after having completed a provisional health certification process from Argentine meat processing plants, which began in 2023.

In this way, Argentina adds one more destination to its extensive list of buyers of beef cuts, which includes the most demanding and relevant markets in the world, which demonstrates the competitiveness, quality and health conditions of our meat products.

In 2023, El Salvador imported refrigerated and frozen beef for more than 200 million dollars, almost entirely from countries in the Central American region.

Nayib Bukele, president of El Salvador, celebrated the arrival of the first shipment, highlighting on his social media account that “with greater competition, prices will drop and quality will improve.”

Beef consumption in Argentina is reduced to levels of the end of the last century

According to data collected by the Chamber of Industry and Commerce of Meat and Derivatives (Ciccra), the apparent consumption of beef in Argentina during the first 9 months of the year has been reduced by 12.3% throughout this year compared to 2023. It totaled 46.8 kg and this represents 6.6 kg less.

According to the director of this organization, Miguel Schiariti, if the mobile year from October 2023 to September 2024 is taken into account, "it was 47.5 kilograms per inhabitant per year and was 10.9% below the average recorded in September of last year", which is 5.8 kg less than in the same previous period.

With these indications, the beef consumption figures in Argentina are the lowest in the last 26 years.

Meat production has also fallen by 6.4%, but the good performance of the global meat trade has led to an increase in exports of 7.8%.

The Uruguayan Football Team will promote its country's meat in Asian countries

The Uruguay Football Association and the National Meat Institute signed an agreement to promote Uruguayan meats and its Uruguay Meats brand in Asian markets, through the collective image of five players.

For this first stage of the agreement, INAC has selected the footballers Federico Valverde, Ronald Araújo, Darwin Nuñez, Rodrigo Bentancur and Manuel Ugarte. The image of the players will always appear in the campaigns in a collective form and is exclusive to the Asian markets that INAC is prioritizing: China, South Korea, Japan, the United Arab Emirates and Malaysia.

The markets of interest to INAC are the same ones where football is having more development. In this sense, work is being done on designs for mass campaigns in Chinese media and publicity in public spaces, points of sale and others. Likewise, INAC will be the official sponsor of the Uruguayan Football Team and the Official Sponsor of La Celeste.

In the target markets for the Uruguay Meats meat brand, football fanaticism is growing exponentially and audiences are focused on the football leagues of Spain, England, Italy, France and Germany.

The best players in the world are present in these leagues, including the Uruguayans who will be selected for these campaigns. The footballers thus become ambassadors of football, playing and representing the Uruguayan national team, which is recognised and respected in these markets.

In the communication and promotion of our meats in Asia, the parallelism between football and meats will be highlighted - the same origin, the seal of quality and the prominence in international markets.

The agreement and its actions will be developed until December 31, 2026.

Argentina's beef and leather exports now exceed 2.4 billion dollars

The beef and complex is in the top 5 of Argentina's export complexes, occupying fifth place and representing approximately 5% of the total export value of the basket of national goods. If only the agro-industrial sector complexes are considered, beef and leather climb to third position, behind the soybean and corn complexes.

In the first eight months of the year, this complex was responsible for the entry of 2.3723 billion dollars to Argentina, a very important contribution considering the need to replenish the stock of reserves. In terms of volumes, shipments of this complex during the first 8 months of the year accumulated 867,474 tons, which marks a slight decrease of around 0.6% compared to the record during the same period last year. However, due to a relative drop in the average FOB prices of the complex during this year, the drop in foreign currency generation from exports of beef and bovine hides was 2.9%.

If we compare these exported values ​​with the averages of the last 5 years, we obtain that the volume exported so far in 2024 is 23.5% higher, while in terms of FOB values, it implies a decline of 2.3%. This denotes the negative path that the international prices of the complex have gone through in recent years.

Analyzing only frozen and chilled meat exports, it is noteworthy that in the first 8 months of 2024 a total of 611,684 tons were exported, the highest value recorded for this period, with data available since 1990. This volume represents an increase of 5.6% compared to the same period in 2023, while the improvement is around 15% compared to the average of the last five years in the same period. Beef exports from the period from January to August 2024 accounted for 30% of total production, a record for the last 35 years.

Despite this increase in volume that reached record values, the value of meat exports so far in 2024 showed a decline compared to the same period last year, with a drop of 1.5%. This is a reflection of the negative trend that continues to be present in global meat prices since the first part of 2022, when they reached their highest levels since the end of 2016. On average, meat export values ​​have fallen by 6.7% this year compared to prices in the same period last year.

So far in 2024, 46.5% of the value of the bovine meat and leather complex exported was destined for China, with more than 1,104 million dollars out of a total of 2,372 million. Also noteworthy are exports of the complex to Israel, the United States, Germany, the Netherlands, Chile, Russia and Brazil, which together account for a third of the export value.

The export volume of the meat and leather complex destined for China in the first eight months of this year shows a year-on-year variation of 1% and 57% compared to the average of the last 5 years. After the sharp increase in the quantity demanded by the Asian country last year, with an increase of 23%, the volume exported to China continues to grow.

We can also highlight the increase in exports of the bovine meat and hide complex to the United States, which between January and August of this year accumulated 68,722 tons, according to INDEC data. This marks an interannual growth of 20.6%. In terms of value, the scenario is even better, the amount of dollars generated by sales to the North American country increased by 30.4% compared to the same period last year, totaling more than USD 166 million.

Abiec and other Chinese organizations will work on improving sustainability in Brazilian meat production

The Brazilian Association of Meat Exporting Industries (ABIEC) announced on the occasion of the World Forum on Agri-Food Innovation (WAFI) 2024, the creation of the Working Group on Sustainability in the Brazil-China Meat Industry.

The initiative, in partnership with the China Meat Association, the Mato-Grossense Meat Institute (IMAC) and the World Resources Institute (WRI), aims to promote sustainable practices in beef trade between the two countries. Sustainability is one of the pillars of the Brazilian Meat project, an initiative that is the result of a partnership between Abiec and the Brazilian Export and Investment Promotion Agency (ApexBrasil).

The formalization of the group took place during the event “China-Brazil Agricultural Trade Cooperation and Green Development,” which celebrated the 50th anniversary of diplomatic relations between the two nations.

Abiec's Sustainability Director, Fernando Sampaio, highlighted that this alliance is an important milestone to strengthen the dialogue between exporters and importers on sustainability criteria and ensure that Brazilian beef continues to be produced efficiently and with less environmental impact.

The recently launched Working Group will have as its central mission to facilitate exchanges between Brazil and China on best sustainability practices in the beef chain. The initiative aims to ensure that production respects strict environmental criteria, promoting transparency and cooperation between countries.

August was a poor month for U.S. beef exports, with pork exports the second lowest all year

Boosted by strong performances in Mexico, U.S. pork exports in August were up from a year earlier, according to data released by the USDA and compiled by the U.S. Meat Export Federation (USMEF). U.S. beef exports were below year-over-year levels in August, while lamb exports trended upward, reaching the highest volume since January.

Pork exports in August amounted to 238,989 tons, up 6% from a year ago but the second-lowest level in 2024. Export value rose 8% to $702.9 million. In addition to strong performances in Mexico, exports trended upward to Central and South America, the Caribbean and the ASEAN region. August shipments to Malaysia hit a record high, while exports to Colombia hit a record high in value.

From January through August, pork exports were just under 2 million tons, up 4% from a year ago, while their value rose 7% to $5.68 billion. The value of pork exports was a record high through August, and USMEF projects both export volume and value to hit record highs in 2024.

“Mexico was once again the top destination for U.S. pork, but demand across the Western Hemisphere was extraordinary in August,” said Dan Halstrom, USMEF President and CEO. “Shipments to South America recorded the highest value ever recorded, while exports to Central America and the Caribbean also achieved strong growth. These markets are increasingly competitive, making it essential for the U.S. industry to defend its market share while developing marketing efforts that help expand global consumption.”

As for beef, meat exports totaled 102,682 tons in August, down 6% from a year ago and the lowest level since January. Export value fell 4% to $845.9 million. Mexican demand for U.S. beef remained strong in August, while exports to Taiwan, the Middle East and the ASEAN region also trended upward. But these results were offset by lower shipments to Japan, South Korea and China/Hong Kong.

In the first eight months of the year, beef exports were 3% below last year's level at 856,834 tonnes, but 4% higher in value at just under $7 billion.

"Demand for beef in our key Asian markets appeared to lose some momentum in August, but exports held up well to Mexico, Taiwan and the Middle East," Halstrom said. The lifting of restrictions imposed by Colombia on US beef in late September is also a positive development. Although it came too late to impact August results, it will help bolster fourth-quarter demand in Latin America."

September was the second most important month in terms of the amount of poultry and pork exported to Brazil

Brazilian chicken meat exports totaled 485,000 tons in September, according to ABPA, which was 22.1% more than in 2023 and is the second highest figure for a month throughout 2023. The same occurred with the value of what was exported, which totaled 953.8 million dollars, 32.6% more.

From January to September, 3.91 million tons of this type of meat were exported, 0.6% more, for a value of 7,273 million dollars, 4% less.

“The increase in September reversed the result recorded throughout the year, which is now positive and shows signs of continuing this way until December. With the rise in average export prices, we also had an increase in September revenues at levels significantly higher than those recorded in volumes,” assesses ABPA president Ricardo Santin.

As for pork, exports in September totaled 120,400 t, 7.3% more than in 2023, also the second highest figure after the data from Brazil. In value, the performance of the month has also been positive, totaling 283.7 million dollars, 15.9% more.

Between January and September, 990,700 t have already been exported, 7.7% more, for a value of 2,169 million dollars, in line with the figures for 2023.

The president of the ABPA, Ricardo Santin, highlights that "the average price of pork exports has registered consecutive increases that accumulate more than 350 dollars per t throughout this year, with a positive impact on the income from shipments. The flow should remain positive throughout 2024, with growth prospects in total exports for the year."

In the case of Brazil, the Philippines is the country that imports the most pork, with 18,200 t, followed by China with 16,700 t.

Santin highlights that there is a reconfiguration in the map of Brazilian pork shipments, which is confirmed by the strong fluctuations in import movements by destination. In addition to the consolidation of the Philippines as the main importer, Latin American countries such as Chile, Mexico and Argentina are increasing their demand for Brazilian products. The same can be said of Japan, a country that demands products with high added value.

China to offer help to farmers to boost beef production

The Chinese Ministry of Agriculture has announced the launch of support to stabilise beef and dairy production in the country through aid to farmers. The country will focus on stabilising the basic production capacity of beef and dairy cattle, and local authorities are urged to speed up projects to expand and improve the quality of breeding cows.

Among the measures to improve financial and insurance support, a whitelist system will be established for beef and dairy farms. Farms facing temporary difficulties will receive assistance through loan extensions and renewals. The circular stresses strengthening the beef and dairy cattle industries in areas and among populations that have emerged from poverty.

Advertising campaigns will also be carried out to highlight the quality and nutritional value of fresh meat and milk. According to data from the National Bureau of Statistics, China's beef output increased by 3.9 percent year on year in the first half of 2024.

New record for Brazil in beef exports: it reached 286,750 tons in September

Brazilian beef exports reached a new record in September 2024, with the shipment of 286,750 tons, corresponding to an increase of 7.12% compared to the previous record, recorded in July of this year, and 15.6% higher than in August 2024. Foreign exchange earnings last month were US$ 1.258 billion, representing the third highest in the history of the sector's exports and 17.4% higher than the previous month, only behind August and September 2024, when average meat prices, influenced by the pandemic, reached highs of US$ 5,900 and US$ 5,700 per ton, respectively.

The figures are from the Ministry of Development, Industry, Trade and Services (MDIC), compiled by the Brazilian Association of Meat Exporting Industries (Abiec).

Between January and September 2024, Brazilian exports total 2.1 million tons of beef, with revenues of $9.16 billion. Compared to the first nine months of 2023, shipments increased by 28.3%, while revenues grew by 20%.

China, which accounted for 44.5% of Brazilian beef exports so far this year, increased its purchases by 10%. However, revenues fell by 0.9%, reflecting adjustments in average prices.

The United States showed significant growth of 58% in import volume and 48.7% in revenue, totaling 147,000 tons and $867.4 million in revenue.

According to Abiec, another highlight was the United Arab Emirates market, which has established itself as an important hub for the Middle East region. Shipments to the country grew by 162%, reaching 120,000 tonnes. Revenues more than doubled, with an increase of 168%, from $203 million to $547 million.

China reopens the market for Chilean

The General Administration of Customs of the People's Republic of China announced the reopening of the Chilean poultry meat market. This milestone puts an end to the suspension that took place in March 2023, after the first outbreak of this Highly Pathogenic Virus (HPAI) was confirmed in Chile.

Prior to this emergency, China represented a key market for Chilean exports of poultry products. Between January 2022 and March 2023, more than 34,300 tons of poultry products were exported, which positioned China as the third most important destination, representing 15% of the total shipments of the sector. This was highlighted by the Minister (s) of Agriculture, Ignacia Fernández, who made the announcement of the opening of the market, together with the Undersecretary of International Economic Relations, Claudia Sanhueza, the national director of the Agricultural and Livestock Service (SAG), José Guajardo Reyes, the national deputy director of the Office of Agricultural Studies and Policies (Odepa), Daniela Acuña and the president of ChileCarne, Juan Carlos Domínguez.

“We are announcing excellent news for exporters, who will be able to market poultry products again in a key market. The closure of this market represented a loss, both for the production of the sector, and for us as a Government, by encouraging economic activity and activation in the different production markets. With this action, Chile is again recognized as a reliable partner in terms of trade and, therefore, the lifting of these restrictions opens the opportunity for new conversations on bilateral and commercial relations,” stressed the Minister (s) of Agriculture, Ignacia Fernández.

The Chilean exporting establishments that will be able to resume poultry exports to China include Agroindustrial Arica, Sopraval, Faenadora Lo Miranda, Faenadora San Vicente and Agroindustrial El Paico.

In this context, the president of ChileCarne, Juan Carlos Domínguez, said that “this is excellent news for the poultry meat producing sector, since China is, in fact, the third destination market for our exports. We have been working together for twenty months between the public and private sectors to achieve this reopening and we must highlight the effort and willingness of the authorities, especially the Ministry of Agriculture and the Undersecretariat of International Economic Relations, who maintained a fluid dialogue with the authorities in China. Exports are what allow us to have competitive sectors and, in our case, they are the engine for continuing to develop.”

The main products exported between January 2022 and March 2023 were by-products such as neck, legs, claws, rump, skin and frozen cut meat with bone. These products are in high demand in China, where they are valued at a higher level than in other markets. In terms of value, exports in 2022 totalled 107,498,559 dollars, which underlines the strategic hierarchy of the Chinese market, one of the most important in the world, for the national poultry industry.
