China confirmed it lifted the ban on Brazilian beef

"The Chinese government decided to lift the ban on Brazilian beef" after a meeting between the Brazilian Agriculture Minister Carlos Favaro and Chinese customs chief Yu Jianhua. 

Last year, China spent $8bn on Brazilian beef, amounting to almost nine percent of its imports from Latin America’s largest economy.

Favaro, who met Yu in Beijing, said the decision was "a step forward for Brazil".

Chinese authorities recently issued a communication making official the return of Brazilian meat.
