WASHINGTON, D.C. (RFD News) — U.S. beef exports to Saudi Arabia have doubled from a year ago after technical barriers limiting market access were removed earlier this year.
Since April, USDA data shows exports to Saudi Arabia have doubled in both volume and value compared with the same period last year.
The U.S. Meat Export Federation says Saudi Arabia imports more than $1 billion worth of beef each year, creating a significant growth opportunity for U.S. producers.
