China will sell 40,000 tons of frozen pork from its state reserves on December 19. According to Reuters, the measure aims to secure protein supply before the Lunar New Year holidays.
The measure, announced in a statement posted on the China Commodity Reserves Management Center website, comes after another sale of 40,000 tons of frozen pork from state reserves on December 12.
It is worth noting that China faces concerns over pork shortages in the country after a severe outbreak of African swine fever decimated China’s huge pig herd.
