Russia is preparing to begin exporting pork to China by mid-2024, according to Deputy Prime Minister Victoria Abramchenko. This will be an important step for the Russian pork industry, since China is one of the largest consumers of pork in the world.

For several years, the General Administration of Customs of China held negotiations with Russian departments, and the result was the abolition of restrictions for all regions of Russia. Now it is necessary to draw up the relevant documents and agree on examination procedures for enterprises involved in the supply of pork to the Chinese market.

Pork exports to China represent enormous potential for the Russian economy. China is one of the largest consumers of pork in the world, and Russian producers will be able to take advantage of this demand to expand their markets and increase exports.

In addition, the lack of plans by the Russian authorities to introduce new restrictions on food exports creates a favorable situation for the development of pork exports. This underscores Russia's desire to strengthen its economic ties with China and open up new opportunities for Russian manufacturers.

The start of pork shipments to China is expected to attract the attention of other countries and international markets. This could be an incentive to develop the pork industry in Russia and improve the quality of pork to meet the demands of the Chinese market.

Thus, pork exports to China represent great potential for the Russian economy and the pork industry. It will expand markets and strengthen economic ties between Russia and China. By mid-2024, we can expect the start of pork supplies, which will be an important step for the development of Russian exports and strengthening our position in the international pork market.
