# Around 10,000 herds of cattle for export to China stuck in Muse since the end-last year - Global New Light Of Myanmar

> About 10,000 cattle owned by 150 Myanmar companies are stranded at the Muse border since late 2020 because China's legal cattle trade route has been halted. Holding costs for labour and feed are rising, and some traders are shifting to illegal channels or other export markets.

## Why it matters

Suspended Chinese demand for Myanmar cattle is a small regional export disruption, with negligible effect on global beef or feed prices.
