China Approves import of Qualified Argentina Sorghum

China AQSIQ said, China approved the import of qualified Argentina sorghum. As the World's second largest exporter of sorghum, following US and Australia, Argentina has become the third country to export sorghum to China.

This may make sorghum from US encounter competition, the United States is the world's largest exporter of sorghum. Chinese feed mills buy more sorghum instead of corn, because sorghum is cheaper.

On November 26, China AQSIQ issued a statement, saying that inspection and quarantine departments of the two countries signed the "Protocol of phytosanitary requirements on Argentine sorghum exported to China". Since November 3, imports of qualified Argentine sorghum would be allowed. (www.chinainout.com)
