Industry calls for renewal of poultry tariffs

The biggest threat to South Africa’s poultry industry is “unfair trade practices from countries like Brazil, Ireland, Spain and Denmark which dump their product on South African shores,” industry organisation the South African Poultry Association broiler organisation GM Izaak Breitenbach says. While South Africa’s International Trade Administration Commission (Itac) considers the imposition for five years of anti-dumping duties against these countries, provisional anti-dumping duties were in force from December 2021 to June 14.
