The animal died in 2010 of causes other than the disease, which it did not develop. The case was deemed &ldquo;atypical,&rdquo; but several countries banned imports of beef from the state or from Brazil altogether. Afterwards, they reversed the decision. The World Organisation for Animal Health (OIE) rates Brazil as having &ldquo;negligible risk&rdquo; for the mad cow disease causative agent. <\/p>\n<p>According to Junqueira, Brazil has accomplished the steps required by Japan before selling beef to the Asian country again. In the case of Saudi Arabia, a trip is scheduled in November to negotiate the end of the embargo. &ldquo;We can safely say that the expectation is to [reverse the restrictions by the end of the year]. It is up to them [the countries]. We are working hard to end the ban [on Brazilian beef],&rdquo; Junqueira told <em>Ag&ecirc;ncia Brasil<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>*Translated by Gabriel Pomerancblum<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The secretary of International Agribusiness Relations at Brazil\u2019s Agriculture Ministry hopes that by the end of 2014, Saudi Arabia and Japan will resume importing bovine meat from Brazil.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2316,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[102],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-49044","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-agribusiness"},"wps_subtitle":"The secretary of International Agribusiness Relations at Brazil\u2019s Agriculture Ministry hopes that by the end of 2014, Saudi Arabia and Japan will resume importing bovine meat from Brazil.","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/49044","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2316"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=49044"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/49044\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=49044"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=49044"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=49044"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
