发帖数: 1337 | 1 The world’s biggest oilseed processor just confirmed one of the soybean
market’s biggest fears: China has essentially stopped buying U.S. supplies
amid the brewing trade war.
“Whatever they’re buying is non-U.S.,” Bunge Ltd. Chief Executive Officer
Soren Schroder said in a telephone interview Wednesday. “They’re buying
beans in Canada, in Brazil, mostly Brazil, but very deliberately not buying
anything from the U.S.”
In a move that caught many in U.S. agriculture by surprise, China last month
announced planned tariffs on American shipments of soybeans. As the market
waited for the measure to take effect, there was some hope among traders and
shippers alike that relations between the nations could ease in the
meantime and the trade flow would continue. But that doesn’t seem to be the
case, at least for now, according to Bunge.
It’s “very clear” that the trade tensions have already stopped China from
buying U.S. supplies, Schroder said. “How long that will last, who knows?
But so long as there is this big cloud of uncertainty, that’s likely to
continue.”
Price volatility in farm goods has picked up in recent weeks as the saber-
rattling between the U.S. and China intensifies. Other agricultural products
caught up in the dispute include corn, pork and sorghum. Soybeans are the
second-largest American crop and prices are heavily dependent on trade with
the Asian nation, the world’s top importer.
In the two weeks ended April 19, China canceled a net 62,690 metric tons of
U.S. soybean purchases for the marketing year that ends Aug. 31, U.S.
Department of Agriculture data show. At this time of year, South American
countries typically complete their harvests and become the dominant shippers
for several months. Brazil’s lead on global exports is expected to widen
to a record in the 2017-2018 season as it sells 73.1 million tons abroad
versus 56.2 million from the U.S., the USDA estimates.
Bunge has still been able to meet Chinese demand by filling shipments with
supplies from outside the U.S., Schroder said. The White Plains, New York-
based company has a large presence in South America.
“I would rather say that we would prefer that free trade and no disruptions
take place because it’s not good for anyone,” Schroder said. “We are, by
virtue of our footprint, in a very good position to deal with” the
situation, he said.
