Several European supermarket chains stop selling some or all beef products from Brazil due to links with destruction of the Amazon rainforest
Deforestation, after falling for several years, has risen since far-right President Jair Bolsonaro came to power in 2019.
Chains such as Carrefour Belgium have committed to pulling from their shelves corned beef, beef jerky, and fresh prime cuts suspected to come from cattle raised in the Amazon and the Pantanal tropical wetlands. Carrefour withdrew Jack Link's brand beef jerky, a pledge also made by Belgian supermarket Delhaize, and Auchan of France similarly said it would be removing beef jerky products linked to JBS.
