# Livestock Organizations Ask Mexico’s Government to Reject Expanded Tariff-Free Quotas for Countries Without Trade Agreements

> Mexican livestock organizations urged the government to reject proposed increases in tariff-free import quotas for 2027 unless specific shortages and impacts are assessed. The proposals would raise beef quotas from 70,000 to 150,000 tonnes and pork quotas from 51,000 to 100,000 tonnes.

## Why it matters

If expanded, the quotas could increase imported meat supply and put pressure on prices received by Mexican cattle and hog producers. Blocking them would limit that potential supply increase.
