The duties were put in place for certain US packers amid dumping allegations raised by Mexican livestock producers. The US became a net cattle and beef exporter to Mexico in 1996 and today represents a $910 million beef export market.

“The elimination of these duties is a positive development,” said AMI President J. Patrick Boyle, “because a cooperative trading relationship between the US and Mexico is in our mutual best interests.”
