Israel authorized the import of live cattle from Uruguay

Recently, Israel announced that it accepted the certificate that was being negotiated. "This is another achievement that is highly valued", said De Freitas.

The export of castrated cattle of all categories is now authorized, while in the case of entire cattle and females, animals up to 8 months old and weighing a maximum of 200 kilos may be exported. The quarantine period is 30 days and those authorized by the Livestock Services may be used.

Israel imports about 300,000 live cattle a year. Its traditional supplier was Australia, but due to the conflict in the Red Sea, ships have to go around southern Africa and enter the Mediterranean from the west, which triples the journey time. That has led Israel to look for alternative sources.
