Beef export volume from Japan FY 2012-2021
In fiscal year 2021, close to eight thousand tons of beef and veal meat were exported from Japan, an increase from 945 tons exported in fiscal 2012. As trade partners gradually lifted import bans for beef from Japan, which had been in place since the outbreak of bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) in 2001, the export volume increased sharply in recent years.
