DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/tw4xb3/corn_products) has announced the addition of the "Corn Products China News 1308" report to their offering.
China's corn import volume increased hugely in the past years, but the uptrend stopped in H1 2013. China's corn import volume was down 36.73% year on year in H1 2013, as the demand for corn was weak in H1 2013. In this period, the widespread H7N9 (an avian influenza virus) depressed both the feed industry and the corn deep-processing industry, which further impacted the domestic demand for corn.
As the impact of H7N9 began fading away from May 2013, many insiders believed that it would be possible for the poultry industry to recover from huge losses the virus has caused. However, the news that one more person infected with H7N9 in Hebei province further hindered the recovery of the poultry industry.
The operating rate of furfural companies in China decreased sharply from 30 June to 20 July this year, due to the heavy rain in this period.
China imported 1.52 million tonnes of corn in H1 2013, down 36.73% year on year.
In June 2013, the total import value of corn products in China witnessed a month-on-month decrease of 74% while the export value decreased by 5%.
