    The Brazilian Frozen Food Association (Abrafrigo) announced on the 5th that the country's beef exports totaled 231,000 tons in September, exceeding the all-time high reached in August this year and setting a new record
    .
    The agency noted that this was mainly due to the increase
    in procurement in the Chinese market.
     
    According to the Brazilian website Forbes, survey data showed that China bought a total of 137,000 tons of Brazilian beef in September, breaking the record
    again after the highest level of purchases in August (131,000 tons).
    China's share of Brazilian beef exports also increased from 47.
    5% to 52.
    8%.
     
    The association said that because October 1 to 7 coincided with the Chinese National Day Golden Week holiday, beef imports in the Chinese market increased
    significantly.
    The association also said beef reserves to celebrate the Chinese New Year early next year have also increased
    .

    6), an increase of 36%
    year-on-year.
     
    As of September, China had imported 924,000 tonnes of beef from Brazil, up from 713,000 tonnes
    in the same period last year.
    Sales also increased to $6.
    18 billion (32.
    22 billion reais)
    last year.
     
    In second place in market share is the United States, which imported 128,000 tonnes of beef from Brazil in the first nine months of this year and sold $731 million (about 3.
    8 billion reais).

     
    According to the Brazilian Animal Protein Association (ABPA), the national pork export volume in September was 102,700 tons, down 8.
    5% year-on-year, and sales were $244.
    3 million (about 1.

    5%
    year-on-year.
     
    In addition, ABPA also said that as of September, the overseas sales volume of Brazilian pork reached 825,000 tons, a decrease of 5%
    compared with the same period last year.
