Update: On 31 August 2021, the Argentine Government extended the Decree until 31 October 2021. The extension was justified on the grounds that the restriction on exports had stabilised and, in some cases reduced, domestic beef prices.

On 22 June 2021, the Argentine Government enacted a new beef export restriction regime. Under Decree 408/2021 (the Decree), the Government is limiting total Argentine beef exports and banning the export of certain cuts. The Decree follows the suspension of beef exports for 30 days on 19 May 2021.
