An analysis of the import and export situation of meat products in China

Introduction: in recent years, the export of livestock products in China has stagnated The export of meat products in 2001 was 29 US $400 million, up 1% year on year 03%, down 6% from 1996 43% The proportion of exports in meat products is 3 3%, 0% lower than the previous year 24 percentage points, down 1% from 1996 05 percentage points In terms of varieties, except for the decline in the export of mutton and dairy products, the export of other cattle products, pig products, beef, pork and poultry products all increased over the same period of last year Cai Ping, an expert from the Ministry of agriculture, believes that there are many reasons for this situation In addition to the low export quality of China's livestock products and the large proportion of primary products, it also has a lot to do with our lack of international trade talents, the lack of safety production standards in line with international practices, and the product monitoring and inspection system After China's accession to the WTO, if we don't pay close attention to this work, we may lose this market There are also many examples in this regard For example, the current US 2001 steel dispute is one of them Another example is the export of poultry meat, which has been repeatedly banned by Japan, South Korea and other countries by using "green trade barriers" These problems in trade friction should be attached great importance to by export enterprises According to qbw Cai Ping, from the perspective of import, China imported 122 meat products in 2001 US $900 million, down 6% year on year 54% Imports of poultry and pig products decreased (27 8.8 billion and 2 US $6.1 billion), down 12% year on year 22% and 26% 34% Imports of cattle and sheep increased by 7% year on year 06% and 47 99% The increase in the import of cattle and sheep products and the decrease in the import of poultry and pig products also indicate that the development of animal husbandry in China should make efforts to adjust the product structure QBw
