Britain-China discuss beef, lamb trade
Britain is hopeful that a deal can be reached with China, which would see its beef and lamb exported to the country for the first time in 30 years. China’s 30-year ban on British beef and lamb was imposed due to BSE. A deal with China could be worth up to USD 205 million to the UK economy. British Prime Minister David Cameron's visit to China in December yielded an export deal for pork products worth up to USD 77 million. Negotiations for a new agreement between the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs and the Chinese authorities is expected to realize British beef and lamb supplies to China.
