Introduction: first, international news of meat information: Russia's domestic supply cannot meet the demand after the ban on US poultry Russian poultry production and importers revealed last week that Russia has no urgent remedial measures after the ban on US poultry import "We can increase production, but at present we can't meet the needs of the domestic market in Russia," said Andrei lapkin, general manager of a chicken factory in central Russia Nikolai Galitsky, general manager of a poultry production plant near Moscow, also said, "we have to double our output to significantly increase the demand for poultry meat, but we don't know what to do in the absence of favorable government support." Russia is the largest importer of poultry in the United States, with 40% of its poultry imports coming from the United States According to the statistics of the Russian Ministry of agriculture, Russia imported 1.36 million tons of poultry meat last year, of which 1 million tons came from the United States and the domestic production was only 860000 tons Ukraine will maintain its ban on U.S poultry meat Ukrainian government officials said last week that Ukraine will continue to maintain its import ban on U.S poultry products during talks with U.S Department of agriculture officials Last week, a delegation of U.S officials flew from Russia to Kiev, Ukraine's capital, to negotiate the lifting of the ban after Ukraine banned imports of U.S poultry products in mid February, citing the use of antibiotics banned by Ukraine in U.S poultry production Ukrainian officials say Ukraine will not change its current policy unless the United States stops adding antibiotics to poultry feed A second suspected case of BSE was found in Finland The Finnish government revealed last week that a second suspected case of BSE was found in the western part of the country The Finnish Ministry of Agriculture said in a statement that Finland has slaughtered the cow with similar symptoms to mad cow disease, and the final test results will be released in two days Finland found its first case of BSE on a farm in the North last December The U.S Department of agriculture welcomed the continued talks between the United States and Russia The U.S Agriculture Secretary Ann Veneman said last week that the U.S Department of agriculture welcomed the decision of U.S and Russian experts to continue talks on Russia's ban on U.S poultry Ten days ago, Russia banned the import of US poultry products for security reasons, but after a week of urgent negotiations, no progress was made, and experts from both sides agreed to continue the consultations The U.S Agriculture Secretary also spoke to the Russian agriculture minister on Tuesday No progress has been made in the negotiations between the US and Russia to end Russia's ban on poultry import After a week of intense negotiations between the US and Russia, the US did not persuade Russia to end the ban on US poultry import, but the two sides said last week that the talks did not stop Alexei gordeyev, Russia's agriculture minister, revealed that Russia has announced that the U.S poultry meat will meet Russia's requirements Once the requirements are met, the import can continue In Washington, U.S Department of agriculture chief avineman said the talks were deadlocked She said the technicians were still there, but they were still unable to make any progress EU found antibiotics in Thai chicken and shrimp products Thai government officials revealed last week that EU found the banned antibiotic furacilin in Thai chicken and shrimp products The European Union announced last week that it will begin testing all poultry products imported from Thailand, as well as shrimp products from Vietnam and Myanmar "The European Commission has informed us that furacilin has been found in chicken and shrimp products exported from Thailand," said rapepong wongdee, chairman of livestock management department of the Ministry of agriculture of Thailand If antibiotics continue to be found in chicken and shrimp products exported from Thailand in the next 4-6 weeks, the EU will ban the import of Thai products Thailand is the second largest supplier of chicken in the European Union, with an annual export of about 37000 tons of chicken Chicken ignites the Russian American trade war From March 1, Russia announced that it would temporarily suspend the import of chicken products produced by the United States, and asked the United States to provide specific materials about the use of antibiotics, preservatives and other pharmaceutical agents used in the production of chicken If the United States could not provide detailed materials by March 10, Russia would completely "ban" the import of chicken products ”American chicken products According to experts' analysis, banning the import of American chicken products is actually a retaliatory measure for Russia's trade with the United States President Bush announced on March 5 that the United States will impose import tariffs of up to 30% on most imported steel products from March 20, and impose import quotas on thick steel plates to limit steel imports As a major exporter of steel products, Russian steel-making enterprises lose us $500-700 million of revenue in the US market every year If Russia "blocks" American chicken products in an all-round way, American chicken producers will also lose nearly US $700 million Once the trade war between the two sides starts, they will lose both sides How to resolve this contradiction has become the most important question for the relevant enterprises of the two countries Question The U.S beef industry group has announced a $8.4 million marketing plan to restore Japanese consumers' confidence in the safety and health of U.S beef Japan is the largest export market of beef in the United States However, since the discovery of mad cow disease in Japan in September last year, the sales volume of beef in the United States has declined significantly According to the statistics of the American Meat Export Association, the sales volume of beef in the United States to Japan fell by 32% and 35% year on year in November and December last year The export of New Zealand mutton increased In the year 2000 / 2001 (October 2000 September 2001), New Zealand exported 412700 tons of mutton, an increase of 2.1% over the previous year; the export revenue of mutton reached US $1.892 billion, an increase of 19% over the previous year Last year, New Zealand slaughtered 31.8 million sheep, an increase of 3.7% over the previous year New Zealand mutton is mainly exported to EU countries with an export volume of 158900 tons, followed by the United States with 40000 tons, Asia with 30000 tons and Pacific island countries with 28000 tons 2 Domestic meat information highlights: Russia prohibits the import of pig beef and poultry from China The Russian Ministry of agriculture revealed last week that Russia will prohibit the import of all pork, beef and poultry from China The ban came into effect on Friday According to the Russian authorities, the ban was introduced because the relevant Chinese authorities were unable to meet the requirements of veterinary examination in accordance with the agreement reached between the two sides In addition, Russia also cited food safety as a reason to ban the import of poultry from the United States Kazakhstan's national veterinary service has also suspended imports of U.S poultry because of concerns about the use of antibiotics and other additives in U.S chicken The ban came into effect on Thursday From March 13 to 14, Beijing Agricultural

rising steadily since the Spring Festival The production has generally increased and the efficiency of the breeding industry has been improved At the end of last year, the price of resources rose,
