Galician authorities are requesting the Spanish central government to negotiate with Morocco for the reopening of its market to Spanish cattle. The market has been closed for several months due to concerns over nodular dermatitis, a contagious skin disease affecting bovines. Officials cite the lack of new cases in the Spanish regions of Catalonia and Aragon since March as justification for resuming trade. The Galician regional government is pushing for discussions with Rabat to address the ongoing blockage. This request aims to alleviate economic pressures on Spanish cattle farmers and restore a significant export market. The situation highlights the importance of veterinary cooperation and disease control in international trade. The news was initially reported by Médias24, a leading Moroccan economic news source.
