Australia and the European Union are holding talks on a possible free trade agreement, with Trade Minister Don Farrell promising he does not do "bad deals". However, meat and food producers are concerned that the federal government may sacrifice the interests of some sectors in an attempt to secure an FTA that has been a long time coming. The Australian red meat industry is calling for a quota for beef exports to the EU of 50,000 tonnes, which compares to the current quota of just 3,389 tonnes, while the EU is said to be offering half what the Australian red meat industry is seeking.
