Chile and Saudi Arabia have lifted restrictions on Brazilian chicken meat, according to an announcement by the Ministry of Agriculture and Livestock on Monday (Aug. 25).
The countries had suspended imports following a case of avian influenza at a commercial farm in the municipality of Montenegro, in the state of Rio Grande do Sul. On June 18, Brazil declared itself free of the disease after disinfecting the affected farm and observing no further cases for 28 days.
Namibia and North Macedonia have also resumed imports, bringing the total number of countries that have lifted the embargo to 41.
Canada, China, Malaysia, Pakistan, East Timor, and the European Union still maintain an embargo on Brazilian poultry.
