Bulgaria to export heat-treated poultry products in Argentina

In the next couple of months, Bulgaria may access the Argentinian market for heat-treated poultry, informs Novinite news agency. According to the source, Bulgaria has received a certificate for the export of heat-treated poultry products to Argentina. The certification procedure was launched in 2019. This transpired during a meeting between Minister of Agriculture, Food and Forestry Desislava Taneva and Argentina's Minister for Agriculture, Livestock and Fisheries, Luis Basterra in Buenos Aires, said the press office of Bulgaria’s agriculture ministry, Focus News Agency reported. Minister Taneva was assured by her counterpart that Bulgaria would receive a certificate for fresh poultry meat as soon as possible.
During the meeting, the two ministers signed a declaration on cooperation in the field of agriculture and the promotion of bilateral agricultural trade.
A recent forecast issued by the USDA say the Bulgarian poultry industry is expected to grow by 5%, as the country is confronted with a meat deficit due to ASF outbreaks that reduced the national swine inventory by more than 30%. The poultry sector is expected to develop fast as the demand in the dmestic market is increasing. Bulgaria is also the main exporter of duck meat in the EU.
