US processing plants quadruple pork exports to China despite COVID-19 slowing down production by up to 40% and warnings of meat supply shortages for Americans
|
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] - Meat exports to China have quadrupled despite companies in the US warning of supply shortages for American consumers amid the coronavirus pandemic
- President Donald Trump last month ordered meat processing plants across the US to remain open to protect the nation's food supply
- An analysis of government data, however, has shown the plants have increasingly been exporting to China while Americans face shortages
- Smithfield Foods, owned by China's WH Group Ltd, Brazilian-owned JBS USA and Tyson Foods Inc temporarily closed meat plants in the US due to infections
- Closures and slowdown in production have reduced pork slaughter capacity by about 35 to 40 percent and beef slaughter capacity by about 30 to 40 percent
- While the number of pigs slaughtered each day has plunged since mid-March, shipments of pork to China more than quadrupled over the same period
We objected when China confiscated American PPE factories over there, keeping the production for themselves... |
