revised slightly higher by 4,000 metric
tons, reflecting increased shipments to
Asian markets.
IMPORTS TO DECLINE
China broiler production to
rise 4% in 2011
China’s broiler meat production
is expected to grow by 4% in 2011,
according to a report by the U.S.
Department of Agriculture’s Foreign
Agricultural Service, reaching 13
million metric tons by the end of the
year.
In addition, China’s broiler meat
imports will decline 20% to 230,000
metric tons, following a 28% drop
in 2010 due mostly to sharply lower
imports from the U.S. resulting from
China’s measures of anti-dumping
duties (beginning February 2010) and
countervailing duties (in August 2010)
on U.S. broiler products.
The country’s broiler exports are
expected to increase 8% to 410,000 metric
tons following strong 2010 sales.
