In 2023, China's swine meat imports stood at an estimated 2.28 million metric tons (carcass weight equivalent). The forecast for 2024 to 2028 predicts a steady import level of 2.28 million metric tons annually, indicating no year-on-year change or cumulative average growth rate over these years. This reflects a stabilization trend in the swine meat import market.
Future trends to monitor include potential shifts in China's domestic pork production capacities, changes in consumer demand, and alterations in trade policies that could affect import volumes. Additionally, any developments in trade agreements or tariffs between China and major pork-exporting nations should be closely monitored.
