U.S. ends 13-year trade beef with China, officials say Arkansas to benefit

(excerpt)

The Trump administration announced Monday (June 12) it has reached agreement with China on final details of a protocol to allow U.S. companies to ship beef exports to China, a move Gov. Asa Hutchinson and the state’s two U.S. senators say will benefit Arkansas and American beef markets.

As part of the U.S.-China 100-Day Action plan announced May 11 by U.S. Secretary of Commerce Wilbur Ross and Secretary of the Treasury Steven Mnuchin, Trump Administration officials said important steps were taken toward commercial shipment of U.S. beef and beef products to China for the first time since 2003.

“Today is a great day for the United States and in particular for our cattle producers, who will be regaining access to an enormous market with an ever-expanding middle class,” U.S. Department of Agriculture Secretary Sonny Purdue said in a statement. “I have no doubt that as soon as the Chinese people get a taste of American beef they’ll want more of it.”
