Animal Protein Association, ABPA formally submitted a proposal to Chinese authorities to raise poultry export prices in a bid to offset losses due to anti-dumping duties. In June China imposed an anti-dumping tariff of between 18.8-38.4%, on Brazilian chicken exports which has a significant effect on many of Brazil’s main poultry exporters – such as JBS and BRF. Brazil is now awaiting China’s response to this.

Brazil’s ABPA submits proposal to raise chicken export prices to China

SAO PAULO, Dec 19 (Reuters) – Brazilian meat industry association ABPA on Wednesday formally submitted a proposal to raise prices for chicken exports to China, in a bid to lift anti-dumping deposits on the Brazilian product, an attorney representing the group said.

Claudia Marques, a partner at MPA Trade Law, said in an interview that China’s Ministry of Commerce will now formally say whether it accepts the terms proposed by ABPA. The anti-dumping deposits on Brazil’s chicken exports into China range from 18 percent to 38 percent, Marques said.
