    Saudi Arabia limits imports from a number of Brazilian chicken processing plants

    Some 58 Brazilian plants are currently authorized to export to Saudi Arabia, ABPA said, but only 30 of those are effectively shipping products to the kingdom.

    Saudi Arabia has barred five Brazilian chicken processing plants from exporting to the Middle Eastern country, leaving 25 with valid export permits, Brazil’s meat trade association ABPA said, citing “technical” reasons. The Saudi move threw up a fresh hurdle for top exporter BRF SA and its rivals just a day after an anti-dumping dispute with China was resolved.
