British Farmers Seek Slice Of Chinese Beef Market
Plans to reverse China’s ban on British beef could be “transformational” for United Kingdom agriculture and generate 250 million pounds ($350 million), according to a leading farming industry body. Last month, the Chinese government announced plans to lift a 22-year ban on British beef imports, introduced after an outbreak of Bovine spongiform encephalopathy, commonly shortened to BSE or known as “mad cow disease”.
