Gilberto Tomazoni: Brazilian beef could escape the US tariff hike
“The negotiations are not yet over. A significant number of products were exempted from the tariff. Before the tariff is implemented, the Brazilian government must be negotiating, and beef could be included in that group. I believe we can still advance the talks and reach a good understanding”, Tomazoni said in a recent interview.
Tomazoni's analysis comes amid growing pressure from U.S. beef importers, who have warned the Trump administration about the risk of price increases. U.S. stocks are at their lowest in more than 70 years, pushing beef prices to record highs.
