Paraguay's 2012 beef exports rise 26% on-year
Paraguay's beef exports in 2012 reached 186,503 tonnes, a rise of 26% compared to the previous year.
According to Customs data, Paraguay's shipments earned US$756 million in value terms, up 4% compared to 2011.
Moreover, Paraguayan beef exporters enjoyed a far better year than expected as they profited from Russia's unpredictable approach to animal health issues.
