Uruguay: Finalizing details for the first live cattle export to Israel

Herbal Paradise will be responsible for the first operation with Israel, a ship that will carry between 3,000 and 4,000 cattle, mostly light steers weighing 250-300 kilos, but also including calves and heifers. In the case of heifers, they must be less than 8 months old and weigh a maximum of 200 kilos upon arrival at their destination. The required quarantine period is 30 days.

Furthermore, another ship will be setting sail for Türkiye in about a month, in a strong trade flow that is sure to continue for the coming months.

In the first quarter of the year, live cattle exports totaled 58,607 heads, of which 43,426 (74%) went to Turkey, more than double the figure for the same period last year. In the 12 months through March, the total exports totaled 361,000 heads.
