UK – Consumer spending on beef in the UK increased by 7.5% during the 12 weeks ending May 17, although overall purchase volumes declined as higher prices continued to affect buying behaviour, according to the Agriculture and Horticulture Development Board (AHDB). The increase in retail expenditure was primarily driven by a 12% rise in average beef prices compared with the same period last year. Total beef volumes fell by 4%, equivalent to approximately 5,150 tonnes, reflecting reduced purchases across several product categories.

Senator and former Minister of Agriculture Carlos Fávaro (PSD) stated on Saturday, the 20th, that the Brazilian government will be able to resolve the embargo - which is set to begin in September - on the sale of Brazilian beef to European Union (EU) countries before the measure takes effect. "We have no problem in removing the use of antibiotics, and if that is what the buyer demands, we will remove it. This is the recommendation I made to President Lula and I know that Minister André (de Paula, of Agriculture) will work on it. I am certain that by September it will be resolved," he said during an event of the railway sector in Dom Aquino (MT). The EU announced in May that it will suspend the import of meat from Brazil due to the lack of proof of control in the use of medications. *The reporter traveled at the invitation of Rumo Information is from the newspaper O Estado de S.
