In recent days, the need for some markets for beef has become evident. The signs come from Europe and the United States. The cuts of quality and of cattle fattened on pasture with which the Hilton quota is covered exceeded $20,000 and reached a new historical record. The data was confirmed by different exporters. This is a consequence of the fact that beef production on that continent falls at a faster rate than its demand, which drives prices up despite policies against beef consumption, such as the case of the Netherlands. On the other hand, the sale of beef for the 20,000-ton quota that the United States awarded to Argentina, which does not pay tariffs, is proceeding at a good pace. Outside of that quota, beef entering that market has a tax burden of 26.4%. Regarding this, analyst Ignacio Iriarte indicated: "According to Consultora Steiner, as of January 31, almost 6,000 tons arrived at U.S. ports from Argentina, a figure that is consistent with the certification published by ...

An average worker in the United States has access to 35 kilos more of premium meat per month than their Argentine counterpart, despite the lower local price of the cut.

The president of the United States, Donald Trump, signed a proclamation that enables an additional quota of 80,000 tons of beef for Argentina through 2026, although with a key clarification that changes the reading of the announcement: it is not about traditional cuts or premium products but exclusively lean beef trimmings intended to be mixed with local production to make ground beef and, above all, hamburgers. “What is sought is to mix our lean meat with theirs that has excess fat,” commented an exporter visibly disappointed with the measure. The official document itself makes it clear that the goal is to ensure the supply of ground beef for the domestic U.S. market. It points out that among the products the United States imports are “lean trimmings, which are mixed with fattier domestic trimmings to produce ground beef, such as hamburgers.”
