Ethiopia to Export Soybean Meal to China Amid Trade War With US
China has approved the import of Ethiopian soybean meal that meets strict phytosanitary standards and is free of pests banned in China, according to the General Administration of Customs.
The move reportedly comes as Beijing seeks alternatives to US soybean supplies. The US was China's second-largest soybean supplier in 2023.
China accounts for over 60% of global soybean imports. In 2023, it imported 87.39 million tonnes, including 59.67 million from Brazil, 22.43 million from the US, and 1.99 million from Argentina, according to the World Integrated Trade Solution.
Ethiopia now joins South Africa, Benin, and Tanzania as African soybean exporters to China.
