A bid to get trade in British beef, breeding cattle and genetics restarted took a step forward when the head of Serbia’s Veterinary Directorate viewed a herd of Buckinghamshire cattle and paid a visit to the Royal Show this week.

Organised by Defra, the English Beef and Lamb Executive (EBLEX) and UK Trade and Investment (UKTI), the Veterinary Director Miroslav Marinkovic stopped off to meet Frances Reader at her farm at Evenley before travelling to Stoneleigh for the Show.

The visit to Britain ended with a series of business meetings in London aimed at gaining certification from Serbia to allow trade to recommence.
