The Minister of Livestock, Fernando Mattosexplained that the qualified meat comes exclusively from areas with high sanitary standards.
“Let us remember that the bone is an incremental risk factor in relation to foot-and-mouth disease, and we have to be careful in relation to the destination markets, because our export industry is also subject to external audits and information is required. enough so that imported meat does not pose a health risk for the national herd or for our exports,” he said. The meat comes from Rondônia, in Brazil. The Santa Clara refrigerator is the first to import. With the entry of this product, it is expected to reach the entire country with a more affordable price than the local cut.
Between Thursday and Friday the merchandise will be available. In the case of this refrigerator, the truck will arrive once a week for seven weeks. They will then assess acceptance.
