In brief: Uruguay hails new agricultural export agreement with China
*Uruguay’s Livestock, Agriculture, and Fishing Minister Alfredo Fratti has hailed a recent agreement with China that will allow Uruguay to process bovine gallstones from its own country, as well as from Argentina and Brazil, for export to China as an ingredient in traditional medicine. Speaking at the country’s main agricultural, industrial, and commercial show, Expo Prado, on 13 September, Fratti said that the gallstones were of “very high value”, calculated to be worth US$250,000 per kilo given their exclusive use for traditional medicine.
