Cattle Update: U.S. Processor To Ship Beef To S. Korea

A Kansas processor is planning to ship 10 tons of meat to Seoul via plane, possibly Monday, sources told Yonhap News

"Once the meat arrives in the country, it should take around two or three weeks to screen the entire shipment for possible violations of the country's sanitary and phytosanitary guidelines," an official at the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry, told Yonhap.

The official, who requested anonymity, indicated the meat will likely reach shelves by May.

Each package will be checked for bone fragments, as well as other banned substances such as dioxins and specified risk materials.

Previous shipments to S. Korea were quarantined after inspectors located bone fragments in packages.

Creekstone was one of the companies that got shafted by the Koreans before.

Sandhusker, have you ever wondered why the Japanese were trying to impose extra tarriffs on American beef in the summer of 2003 if they were supposedly "wanting" NA beef so badly?

In my "humble" ;-) opinion North America has severely gotten the shaft from a few Asian countries since May 2003.

Who said they wanted North American beef so badly?

I think it's just another example that this "free trade" nonsense hasn't been totally accepted by the world.
