It is unlikely China will be able to maintain self-sufficiency on all major agrifood commodities, according to Matthew Hyde and Faraz Syed in the latest Agricultural Commodities quarterly report from the Australian Bureau of Agricultural and Resource Economics and Sciences (ABARES). Pig meat is one product likely to remain the focus of the country's self-sufficiency policy but resource constraints will challenge its ability to maintain self-sufficiency in soybeans and feed grains.
