The Associated Press reports that Japan has recently suspended beef exports on Tuesday after three of 16 beef cattle at a farm in Miyazaki that were found to have symptoms of foot and mouth disease. The ban is said to last at least three months, according to the the agriculture minister, Hirotaka Akamatsu.
I think this article was important because it wouldn’t be right for Japan to be selling beef cattle with diseases, because it could harm someone’s health.

That is kind of good and bad. Good because they will have to eat healthier things and bad because people need meat. Great Article
Good article. That’s good that they banned the meat for a while since it can cause diseases and harm others.
