China lifts ban on beef imports from Italy after 16 years
Italy will be able to export beef once again on the Chinese market after a protocol for health and safety requirements will be approved between the two countries.
Beijing banned imported beef from Italy in 2001, citing safety concerns.
The good news comes after a Chinese delegation visited Italy in September to verify the health protection offered by the Italian food system.
The Chinese authorities also announced the lifting of a ban on Italian bovine semen which was imposed in 2012 due to the Schallenberg virus.
