The suspension of purchases began on September 4, after the discovery of two cases of Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy (BSE), also known as mad cow disease, in Nova Cana\u00e3 do Norte, in the state of Mato Grosso, and Belo Horizonte, in Minas Gerais.<\/p>\n<p>China is the leading destination for Brazilian beef, accounting for 48% of international sales in the sector. In 2020, the total revenue of exports to the Chinese market surpassed USD 4 billion.<\/p>\n<p>According to the Brazilian Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock, and Food Supply (MAPA), Brazil ordered the suspension \u201cin respect of the protocol signed between the two countries, which determines this action if cases of BSE are found; even if atypical.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The MAPA stated the animals developed the disease \u201cspontaneously and sporadically, not related to the ingestion of contaminated food.\u201d Brazilian authorities also mentioned there was no transmission of the disease between animals.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe resumed the normal flow of exports to China, after a period of negotiations, with information exchanges and meetings with teams from the Chinese authorities.
