Japan: Livestock and Products Annual

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)

Japanese beef production is projected to continue its downward trend through 2016, as Japanese pork production rebounds in 2015 from the worst impacts of Porcine Epidemic Diarrhea virus (PEDv). Tight global beef supplies should maintain upward pressure on beef prices in 2015 and 2016. After reaching record highs in 2014, Post projects that pork prices will continue to moderate through 2016, ratcheting up the competition for consumer spending on animal proteins. The Japanese market should continue to unwind significant stocks of frozen beef and frozen pork, tampering import growth in 2016.
