Looking ahead to 2025, good news has arrived from Turkey for Uruguayan breeders. “Recently, the Turkish government issued permits for cattle imports and for 2025, 500,000 heads are authorized, which would be for rearing and fattening, that is, calves and some young bulls,” said Juan Pablo Helguera, director of Del Norte Agronegocios.

Turkish government issued permits to import 500,000 cattle

In an interview, Helguera said that from December 3 to 16, Turkish producers have already been submitting requests to import.

Asked about competition with Brazil, the market operator said that “Uruguay always has an advantage due to quality, and this will be reflected in the price. I think it will be an even better year compared to the previous one.”

Looking ahead to the next calf season, which will have a significant volume of supply, the director of Del Norte Agronegocios said that it looks good, expecting starting prices between US$ 2.50 and US$ 2.60.

Israel

In the next few hours an official mission from Israel will arrive to work on the authorization of Uruguayan cattle for that purpose. Helguera commented that in a good year "it imports about 300,000 heads, even in categories that Turkey does not import, so it would be good news."

There is competition with European countries, but with the war situation, Israel is betting on seeking other markets.
