ABIEC reinforces the importance of dialogue after the US tariff announcement
Added to the current rate of 26.4%, the total tax burden would exceed 76%, compromising the economic viability of exports to the North American market, which imported 229,000 tons in 2024. By 2025, the forecast was to reach 400,000 tons.
The entity is in dialogue with North American importers and is working with the federal government to seek a negotiated solution. It reinforces the importance of preserving trade flows with the United States, which is currently experiencing the shortest livestock cycle in 80 years. It also highlights the joint efforts of the Ministry of Agriculture and Livestock in opening new markets and the Ministry of Development, Industry, Commerce and Services and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in diplomatic and trade negotiations.
ABIEC will continue to act proactively, in partnership with the public sector and importers, to preserve the competitiveness of Brazilian beef, ensure predictability for exporters, and contribute to the balance of international trade and global food security.
