[QUOTE="Oldtimer, post: 137529, member: 97"] [b]Maybe this is why the Packers, Importers, and Retailers are putting so much money into the Congressional Pockets to defeat M-COOL.... With Brazils foot and mouth epidemic we should be slamming the door in their face, not talking about taking in more of their beef......Big Corporate Packer backed government is again putting the US cattle industry in jeopardy....I can't believe why NCBA is still blindly following the packer wishes....[/b] ---------------------- National & World Ag News Headlines Brazil Will Push to Open U.S. Borders to Brazilian Beef USAgNet - 11/01/2005 The Brazzil Magazine is reporting that Brazil will be honoring the visiting United States president with a typical South American barbecue, despite the outbreaks of foot-and-mouth disease in several Brazilian southern states, which prompted over 40 countries to temporarily ban beef imports from the world's largest exporter. President Bush is scheduled to visit Brazil early next month following the Americas summit in Mar del Plata, Argentina, and President Lula da Silva has already anticipated that the distinguished leader, and Texan, will enjoy a display of "gaucho" culinary barbecue art when in Brasilia. At least 14 FAM outbreaks have been officially reported in five states, including Sao Paulo, which have dealt a mighty blow to the powerful Brazilian meat industry with exports well over US$ 3 billion annually. [b]Trade and Industry Minister Luiz Fernando Furlan said Brazilian authorities will take advantage of the occasion to insist on the United States, the world's largest market for beef, to further open to the Brazilian product. [/b] Restrictions on imports of Brazilian beef to the U.S. continue precisely because of the foot-and-mouth issue. "Our main salesman is Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva and he is going to serve President Bush products that are not on the table of U.S. consumers", Furlan is quoted Thursday in the daily Folha de S. Paulo. At least 45 countries have imposed partial or complete bans on Brazilian beef imports since the outbreaks earlier this month. Neighboring Argentina, fearing the quick spread of FAM, declared this week a state of sanitary alert and set up a strict network of sanitary controls along the Brazilian frontier with the support from Customs and armed border patrol guards.
