China decided to suspend accepting import declarations for meat products from 4 Australian firms

[Brainsucker]

It can be done if the government let the meat price to be controlled by domestic supply and demand and avoid making intervention by importing meat from other countries when the domestic meat price goes up. Many government intervention in this sector is made to control inflation and not due to scarcity. At least it is true for my country case.

The problem is that this policy is not popular for any developing countries whose people income is not that high. Actually I prefer this policy so that we can be self sufficient on meat, eggs, chicken and also agriculture product and grow our own farm so that the money can be circulated inside the country. We need to give incentive for our own farmer so that they have more motivation to expand their business. This policy can hurt the people wallet in the sort term but give more benefit in the longer term for the nation.

For China, it always not enough, because they have to feed a lot of people. Like 1.4 billion people. And because there are a lot of new middle income people, which need more quality food, their animal farms won't be enough. Even if they have the biggest livestock farms in this world.

While Indonesia, don't dream too much about self sufficient in everything. We are archipelago country. Our land is not enough for everything. We have a very vast sea. We don't have enough land to make a lot of cattle farms. And our climate is not compatible for cotton farms. So we should focus on marine developing, rather than forcing ourselves to self sufficiently provide beef to our people. Well, fish is also tasty. So why not?

That’s a good sign though.

chinese should eat less beef. More vegetables more tofu.
the world can never sustain if 1.4 billion Chinese eat meat as if there is no tomorrow.

Ya, I also eat more fish in this Ramadhan more than eating meat. I actually like fish. We need to eat fish and chicken more than beef meat. The problem with our fishery industry is that they still lack of adequate refrigerator. It needs government intervention on this matter. The potency is huge if the problem can be solved.

Australia can stop exporting iron ore to China and could possibly destroy China steel industry. Indonesia for instant also has a plan to stop exporting raw material gradually. It has stop exporting nickle ore this year.

Even heard Vale SA in Brazil?

Do you know how much Australian economy is dependent on mining industry and Iron ore export in particular? The reality is that Australia has been reduced to a raw material exporter and nothing else has left (Holden has just closed their last factory). Folks are lucky as there is shining iron to mine otherwise everyone will be out of work.

Oh! the irony of China banning four Aussie meat exporters due to safety concerns.
Particularly considering China's own not so stellar food safety record.

Why is China hiding behind the fig leaf of "safety" concerns? Why not openly declare hostilities?

Lol ask Americans to buy. Problem solved.

If they want, they can.

They have money, they also have many provinces that have huge grassland area to support huge cattle industry.
This is from Inner Mongolia Province

This is from Xinjiang Province

This is from Qinghai Province

This is from Heilongjiang Province

And this is from Gansu Province

The problem is they want it or not..

Until now, they prefer to invest in other field and let the market import those beef from other countries. In order to have fair balance trade with them, so their products can access those country market.
Especially from friendly countries like Russia, Brazil, Kazakhstan, and many others

China can easily get iron ore from another source.
Especially in time like this, Commodity seller country will compete each other to find buyer for their natural resources

Meanwhile, Australian iron ore producer cannot find Big buyer like China.
Because only China Factory that have Gigantic Capacity in Steel Production


With such Gigantic Capacity, aussie cannot find another buyer like China's Size

The "hostilities" were created by Australia itself. Check out what Australia has done to China.
