China Bans the Importation of US Poultry Products

China has issued a ban on the importation of poultry products from the USA including live chicken, hatching eggs, and poultry eggs, due to the discovery of wild birds in Oregon, California and Washington carrying H5N8 avian influenza virus last month. This news has been officially confirmed by the United States Department of Agriculture. All poultry products exported from the USA by sea after Jan. 8, 2015 will be returned or destroyed at port.

China is just one of a number of countries to issue a blanket ban on poultry products of US origin and joins a list of more than 20 countries. Statistical data shows that the import volume of poultry products from the USA to China from January to November 2014 reached 2.72 billion USD. China had become the sixth largest importer of poultry products from the USA.
