The government of Argentina has published Joint Resolution 13-E/2017, that establishes the maximum limits and the uses of irradiation for three more kinds of products: fish and seafood, and their products (fresh or frozen); fowl, beef, pork, goat meat, and other meats and their products (fresh and frozen); and dehydrated animal products. Until now, this method was authorised for potatoes, garlic, onions, asparagus, strawberries, spices, dried vegetable seasonings and/or their mixes, and cultivated edible mushrooms.

The maximum limit of ionising radiations in beef, poultry, pork, goat meat, other meats and their products (fresh and frozen) is 7.0 and 3.0 kGy, for the goals of controlling the microorganisms that cause the spoilage of food and pathogens, and for the control of parasites, respectively.
