From January to September, Brazil's beef exports to the US amounted to US$1.72 billion, up 82.9% year-over-year. Meanwhile, China became the fourth-largest buyer of Brazilian beef, accounting for US$68.3 million in September. The White House opened an additional 300,000 metric tons of US import quota for lean beef trimmings on August 26, aiming to make ground beef cheaper. This quota is divided into three monthly tranches, with Brazil and Paraguay being the beneficiaries. The extra volume opened in September allowed Brazil to supply lean trimmings for the US beef market.",
