Introduction: Australia's federal government agriculture minister TRAS announced in Canberra yesterday that the Australian meat export company senparker was revoked by the government because of its attempt to export sick cattle to China, which may damage Australia China trade relations At the end of September, according to the latest trade agreement between Australia and China, sunpark is preparing to export 1950 cows to China During the quarantine process, Australian and Chinese veterinarians found 41 of them were ringworm, which did not meet the requirements of the trade agreement, so they sent the sick cattle to the nearby cattle pens The other cattle were shipped to China the next day However, after the veterinary inspection, senpark privately loaded the 41 sick cattle and 157 other cattle that had not been quarantined on the ship to go to China After the incident was discovered by China, China announced a moratorium on the import of all live cattle from Australia In a statement, trass said the company's actions were totally unacceptable because they damaged Australia China trade relations and the good reputation of Australia's livestock export industry According to Australia's meat and livestock industry regulations, authorities carefully understood the beginning and end of the incident and the possible serious consequences of the incident, and finally decided to revoke the export business license of sunpark, hoping that other exporters would take warning.
