In 2019, China, which has been an essential partner for Brazil in terms of meat trades for years, has gained even more importance. Due to the lower production of swine products in the Chinese market, due to cases of African Swine Fever (ASF), players in that country have increased imports of meat and Brazil, one of the biggest producers and exporters of meat, has gained advantage in this scenario.
Secex data indicate that, from January to May 2019, the volume of pork shipped by Brazil to China upped 12% compared to that in the same period of 2018
