11 Rate and scale of development Markets forces, entrepreneurship and centralized government have combined to generate faster growth than Japan or South Korea at the same stage of development The scale is at least ten times greater than any other land scarce country Vast movement of labor out of agriculture, the loss of workers will be noticed as the impact of the one child policy becomes more obvious Unproductive land being planted to trees High quality land moving into development

12 Miles of new construction outside every city

13

15 Agricultural Resources China has gone below the politically sensitive 120 million hectares (296 million acres), has at most 275 million acres, a lot of which is poor quality land that cannot be mechanized and should not be farmed The US has about 360 million acres in crops and about 400 million acres of pasture, total agricultural area of almost a billion acres Yet China feeds almost five times the population, the key to this success is the creative Chinese diet, and the use of labor to substitute for crop land and animal feed China has given up on the most land intensive products (beef and soybeans) and is close to importing corn

16 China-US Comparison

20

21 How do you mechanize this?

22

23

24 Economic fundamentals Once a country starts to import animal feeds, its internal prices rise to reflect world prices plus transportation costs It costs as much to move grain from the US to Japan as it costs to produce this grain in the US It is far more efficient to imports boneless boxed cuts than the bulky grain needed to produce hogs This advantage is emphasized by taste differences, China and US consumers are like are Jack Sprat and his wife

25

27

28 Chicken heads are a delicacy

29 Table 1. Chinese pig production and slaughter, by farm size. Slaughtered No. of Farms (%) Share Total Slaughtered(1,000) (%) Share 1~9 101,963, , ~49 4,815, , ~99 851, , ~ , ,639 9, ~ , , ~9999 3, , ~ , Above , ,917, ,

30 Backyard units At least half of the pork in China comes from smaller units these farms turn labor into feed With 9% to 11% economic growth, China has better things to do with labor than raise pigs on household waste This system requires labor, small slaughterhouses, wet markets and a willingness to buy non standardized product Backyard pig production disappears quickly once households can afford a car to drive to the grocery store and to find employment Current mortality in Chinese pork production is reported to be very high due to disease

31 A common sight outside restaurants

32 Disease is endemic, this leads to overuse of antibiotics and residues

33

34

35 Competitive position of the pork industry as of early April, 2010 Corn prices are at $7.00 to $7.40 per bushel, this market is protected and prices are set Soybean meal is already at import parity Current production costs; US $48/100lbs, China $75 to $80 a minimum cost difference of 56% Feed only in China is $52 to $56, It costs $0.20 per pound to ship pork from US plants to China, this increases the carcass price by 25% to 30%, if this was the only barrier US pork would flood in Add in the discriminatory vat and import duty and the difference becomes 58%

36 Competitiveness At current production costs pork carcasses will not move, however there is a quality difference and the differential taste issue All the animal extremes (ear, tongue, snout, mask, feet and hock white organs and bung should move if only economics were at play Chinese consumers do not place as much value on the loin and therefore they have a relative preference for the shoulder Skin on shoulder has an additional 13% competitive advantage and is price competitive However the Ractopamine issue keeps cuts and processed products out of legal channels

37

38

39 The recent Chinese intervention program The intervention program has not kicked in and there is a rapid reduction in backyard units The announcement of the program worked to attract commercial investment but these units are suffering too The commercial units are in await and see mode but they seem confident

40 What happens next? In the short run, opportunities will be based on the grey market, this adds about 250 RMB per ton for repack and 3,250 RMB for the agent fee this is $0.24 per pound Pork exporters and canners will buy legal US product to avoid residue issues, possibly 20,000 to 50,000 tons There will be a scarcity in 12 to 18 months, more and more of the carcass will move to China, probably shoulders and some hams When the US and Chinese hog cycles are at opposite points, then we will see more six piece carcasses some in through official channels

41 What happens next? A currency appreciation or a solution to the Ractopamine issue, or a removal of the differential vat or import duty would generate large movements of shoulders and inexpensive processed meats When the currency strengthens soybean meal prices in China will fall, but corn prices will not. Total production costs will go up by 8% for each 10% in appreciation

42 Percent What other countries have done within a year period Figure 8. Net Imports as a Percent of Total Consumption Australia Japan S Korea Mexico Year

43 Long run China will face food price inflation and high food prices unless it imports It is in Chinas best interests to open its food market for competition, the government will understand this eventually Imported quantities will be enormous, take your best market and multiply by 10
