epa11718164 Farmers representing FUGEA, the United Federation of Breeders and Farmers Groups, stage a demonstration calling for stopping the EU-Mercosur agreement in front of the European Commission building in Brussels, Belgium, 13 November 2024. The European Union is pressing to finalise the EU-Mercosur trade agreement at the upcoming G20 summit in Brasilia on November 18 and 19. This agreement is expected to boost imports of agricultural products from Mercosur countries, particularly beef—an industry already well-established both domestically and abroad. However, these imports represent unfair competition for our farmers, as the standards in Mercosur countries are significantly lower, and the beef is sold at much cheaper prices, which drives down market prices. This fosters industrial-scale meat production in Brazil, contributing to widespread deforestation. EPA/OLIVIER MATTHYS
