Brazil fines meat packers $64 million for buying cattle from deforested Amazon land
BRASILIA - Brazil's environmental protection agency IBAMA has imposed 365 million reais in fines on cattle ranches and meat packers, including the world's largest JBS SA, for raising or buying cattle on illegally deforested land in the Amazon.
The enforcement operation was aimed at curbing deforestation in the Amazon by monitoring the chain that produces or sells cattle from illegally deforested areas, IBAMA said."None of the JBS purchases indicated by IBAMA were made from embargoed areas," the company said. Extensive cattle ranching along with clearing land to sell timber or grow soy are driving deforestation in the Amazon rainforest.
