INDIANA - China has suspended some meat imports from US processing giant Tyson Foods, the country's customs office said on Monday .
The US Department of Agriculture confirmed on its website that the Logansport, Indiana, facility was ineligible for exports to China. The Tyson suspension shouldn't have much impact on the meat trade between the two countries as there are still a lot of US plants eligible to export to China, but it does come at a time when Chinese buyers may be considering more pork purchases from overseas markets, said Pan Chenjun, a senior analyst at Rabobank.
Upcoming festivals and cooler weather are expected to lift consumption of China's favourite meat. Beijing announced on Monday that it will start releasing pork from state reserves to bolster supplies.
