Japan allows limited U S beef imports restart stalled
Japan approved a partial resumption of U S beef shipments after a halt caused by failed compliance checks at two facilities. One plant failed to fully meet import guidelines and will be delayed. a second will remain closely watched for prior regulatory breaches.
