Beef exports from Australia have already hit a record high this year, driven by strong demand from the United States. This was reported by Bloomberg, citing data from Meat & Livestock Australia. For 11 months of this year, shipments amounted to 1.4 million tonnes, which is 15% more than in the same period last year.

Australian farmers are increasing production of grain-fed beef to meet rising demand in Asian markets. At the Gundamain feedlot in New South Wales, six thousand Black Angus cattle are being fed a mix of barley, silage, cottonseed, and molasses. Over 90 days in the feedlot, their weight can increase by 50% to around 600 kg,

Foreign Minister Penny Wong said on November 16 that Australia welcomes the move by U.S. President Donald Trump to remove tariffs on beef, considering this a positive step for Australian beef producers.
