China responds to the new Trump tariffs with methods which hit his supporters in rural America.

Donald Trump is complaining about foreign countries not buying US farm products like Beef, Chicken or Pork.

Explanation – the quality of standard US farming products is not accepted by major countries. The Great American Beef is loaded by Hormons and FDA allows cows to be fed with chicken poop.

The Biden Administration has made special contracts with Japan on Beef Safeguards. Will Japan still trust the Trump crippled FDA?

The EU does not allow Beef with Hormones and has introduced labels for animal welfare standards.

China – Accepts only meat from registered US enterprises

As of March 18, at 12:00 p.m. GACC has not updated its website to remove the “overdue” language for approximately 386 of the 654 U.S. establishments registered to export beef and beef products to China. In 2024, the United States exported $1.6 billion in beef to China, making it the third largest export destination for American ranchers and agribusiness. China was the United States’ number three market for pork, poultry, and dairy in 2024 as exports were $1.1 billion, $0.5 billion, and $0.6 billion respectively. 

China‘s Great Wall of Pork

China consumes 50% if WW Pork

China owns the biggest US PorkProduction Site which is not affected by 68% tariffs in China.

China does not fiddle around with tariffs, which require complex administration. They just do not buy products made in USA which do not meet the Chinese food standards.

Fixed Sow feeds piglets in an old stable

Finally California has established an animal welfare law which does not allow to sell meat, milk, eggs and other products produced by farms which do not comply with this standard. Californian farmers have modernized their stables und comply with the new law. They hope to avoid animal diseases e.g. HSN Birdflu . California is now compliant with the chinese quality standards.

The Trump farmers in the Midwest are in trouble. They can get loans for modernization of their stables.
