Agricultural and livestock regulatory updates in Latin Am

Overview

Agricultural authorities in Mexico, Uruguay, and Chile are implementing various measures to strengthen food safety, livestock management, and production stability.

In Mexico, the Secretariat of Agriculture and Rural Development and the Confederation of Industrial Chambers of Mexico have established a joint agenda to support small and medium-scale producers through fair pricing, improved financing, and market access.

In Uruguay, efforts have focused on disease preparedness and sanitary monitoring. Authorities conducted cabinet simulations to evaluate responses to potential foot-and-mouth disease outbreaks and issued guidelines to protect apiaries from phytosanitary applications. Additionally, Uruguay is launching an automated mechanism to monitor veterinary medicine withdrawal periods, preventing cattle from being cleared for slaughter if required waiting periods are not met.

In Chile, the Servicio Agrícola y Ganadero has introduced updated regulations for the traceability of equines, mules, and donkeys, utilizing a phased implementation of mandatory microchip identification to improve responses to zoosanitary emergencies.
