In China, China’s own pork production has declined due to African swine fever
.
The market opened the door to foreign producers, but problems arose
.
In Australia, due to the epidemic, 7 meat factories stopped production and exports were suspended to restore livestock numbers; Argentina cut supply by 50% to control domestic prices; Brazil as early as 2017, there were dozens of agricultural companies Closed in compliance with sanitary conditions
