Suspensión temporal de aranceles a la carne genera rechazo de agricultores y dudas políticas

Los agricultores de Kansas y Nebraska dijeron que la decisión del presidente Donald Trump de suspender los aranceles a la importación de hasta 300 000 toneladas métricas de carne molida amenaza al mercado interno de ganado y podría debilitar el apoyo republicano antes de las elecciones de medio término. Trump anunció inicialmente una ventana de 90 días sin aranceles para la misma cantidad de carne molida, argumentando que reduciría los precios al consumidor. Posteriormente, la Casa Blanca amplió la cuota de importación de recortes de carne magra en 300 000 toneladas, dividida en tres fases, y firmó una proclamación que formaliza el período libre de aranceles.

La administración también indicó que permitirá a los ganaderos procesar su propia carne para disminuir la dependencia de los grandes empacadores. Legisladores agrícolas y grupos del sector advirtieron que la medida podría perjudicar a los productores nacionales, mientras que economistas expresaron dudas sobre su capacidad para lograr una reducción significativa de los precios.
