Beef exports from the US in the month of November reached a volume of almost 110,000 tonnes, and a value of $872.7 million. 

These figures represent increases of 10% in volume and of 11% in value.

The US Meat Export Federation said demand for US beef was strong in South Korea, China and Taiwan, and was “fairly steady” in Japan.

Chief executive of the organisation, Dan Halstrom, said US beef exports also had a strong performance in Mexico in November and that there had been “outstanding demand” in Egypt for variety meats, or offal. Mr Halstrom said this had been “critical for bolstering carcass value”.
