The United Kingdom has stopped negotiations with Canada about a free trade agreement. Significant agricultural exports to Canada in 2022 included about 22 million euro of cheese and 11 million euro of beef. Since January 1, 2024 the United Kingdom is no longer allowed to use the EU Tariff Rate Quota (TRQ) for cheese but in practice an import tariff of 200 percent applies. In exchange for a lower rate Canada wants among other things access to the British beef market. In Canada, beef cattle are commonly treated with hormones. However, the United Kingdom does not allow production or import of hormone-treated beef.
