Given moderate growth in domestic pork production and high domestic pork prices, China’s pork imports will continue rebounding strongly in 2011.

Total imports, including offal, are expected to increase 20 percent to over 1 MMT, up from 902,000 MT valued at $991.4 million in the previous year. Offal will continue to dominate China’s pork imports. Excluding offal, China’s pork imports in 2011 are expected to rise 15 percent to 480,000 MT (CWE), up from 414,000 MT (CWE) in 2010.
