AP - Japan has agreed to ease its ban on US and Canadian beef imports, resolving a bitter trans-Pacific trade dispute two years after the first case of mad cow disease was discovered in the US herd.The easing of the ban would allow meat from cows under 21 months old back into the Japanese market, which before the ban had been the most lucrative overseas market for American beef, buying $US1.4 billion ($A1.9 billion) worth in 2003.
