WAY OPEN FOR BRAZILAN BEEF.

The government of Indonesia announced on Monday in Jakarta, that the doors are being opened for Braziliam beef after many months of negotiations.

Minister of Agriculture Anton Aprijanton, said in a press conference "We will expand our sources of supply, which can now be from anywhere, but the most important thing is for the meat to be safe to consume and Halal. We are going to take beef from Brazil immediately depending on how soon the exporters are ready to supply us".

The minister went on to say, that they are going to introduce a new beef grading system in the country, pricing beef according to the grades.

President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono, has said that the government would cut the price of meat following the global drop in the price of fuel and animal feed.
