  16. EU Beef Developments • Gradual decline in beef numbers prompted by CAP (Common Agricultural Policy) reform • decouples subsidies from production • Implementation due by 2007 • UK – Over 30 Months restriction to be lifted (170-190k mt in 2006) • Availability of commercially-priced beef from outside the EU, particularly South America • BSE decreased production and consumption in the ’80’s and ’90’s • Accession of new member states will not materially alter the dynamics

  17. EU Pork Developments • EU pork production growth rate has slowed • EU-15 pork up to 18 mmt from 10 mmt in 1970 • Flat growth since 1999 • Common Ag Policy affect? • Spain pork production • Avg increase of 6% annually since ‘70 • 18% average annual export growth ’02-’04

  21. Trade Implications

  22. Emerging Market Access Issues As tariffs fall, countries find other ways to protect their domestic industries • Questionable sanitary standards • Hormone ban, disease restrictions, zero tolerance • Technical barriers • Burdensome paperwork, slow approvals • Anti-dumping measures • Traditionally used by developed countries • Developing countries starting to use As Tariffs Fall…Other Measures Rise Source: Cato Institute

  25. Threats to Global Meat Trade Animal Health / Food Safety Issues • FMD: 13+ countries affected – multiple species • BSE: 24 countries affected comprising 33% of global exports • Avian Influenza: 17 countries affected comprising 53% of global poultry exports • Animal diseases currently threaten 1/3 of global meat exports with losses valued at $10 billion

  26. Impacts • Canada • Exported 47% of production prior to BSE; dropped to 32% • U.S. • 2003 value of exports was $4.2 billion; decreased by over 80% • Japan • Estimated that the food industry in Japan will lose $5 billion due to bans on U.S. and Canadian beef Source: Cattle-fax; UFJ Institute

  27. Trade Concerns Reported Solved After 10 Years Source: WTO

  28. Summary • Scientific Basis Is Vital • Science Can Quickly Become Political • Consumer Perceptions Are Key / Understanding Culture • It is the Industry’s role to provide the necessary information and knowledge to consumers to convey the validity of globally accepted standards
