05 Aug 2019 --- The US and EU have signed a deal in Washington reviewing the functioning of an existing quota to import hormone-free beef into the EU. The agreement is fully in line with World Trade Organization (WTO) rules and establishes that 35,000 metric tons (MT), out of an allotted tariff-rate quota of 45,000 MT will now be allocated to the US, phased over a seven year period. The remaining amount will be left available for all other exporters.
