The Brazilian Association of Meat Exporting Industries (Abiec) states that the Chinese embargo on three Brazilian meatpacking plants is preventive and temporary, while the companies take steps to trace the origin of the shipments and correct the problems identified by the Chinese authorities, according to a note from "Agência Brasil". According to the association, Brazil has one of the most rigorous sanitary control systems in the world, with permanent monitoring of the production chain and inspection by the Federal Inspection Service (SIF). The shipments questioned by China, according to Abiec, are being handled in accordance with the sanitary protocols agreed upon between the two countries.
