8 hours ago | 53 views

China has announced beef import quotas effective from January 2026 for three years, including an annual duty-free quota for New Zealand starting at 206,000 tonnes, which exceeds New Zealand’s recent export volumes. New Zealand’s Trade Minister Todd McClay emphasized that the quota reflects strong bilateral engagement and ensures minimal disruption to exports under the China-New Zealand Free Trade Agreement. Despite the new restrictions, China remains a key market for New Zealand beef, with ongoing efforts to maintain smooth trade relations and explore growth opportunities.
