Exporters ask the government to scrap export taxes and are hopeful for a positive resolution

As WBR reported in its previous edition, exporting slaughterhouses have asked the government to suspend beef export duties, at least temporarily, the ABC chamber confirmed to La Nación. They also requested, among other measures, payment of the export rebates—1.25 % for frozen beef and 1.50 % for chilled beef—overdue for nine months. “Officials showed a willingness to listen. We laid out the situation and they said they are analyzing it. We hope for a positive response,” they said.
