The five-page article, “China’s ImpactTo gain an appreciation of just how influential the events in China are, said author Bill Kiernan, director of Global AgInvesting Research & Insight at HighQuest Partners, one need only consider that China currently consumes 49% of the world’s pork production, 44% of all peanuts, 31% of rice, 28% of soybeans, 22% of corn and 18% of all wheat, while being home to 19% of the world population. “More importantly, Chinese demand for food and agricultural commodities is growing very rapidly, with increases in China’s consumption making up to 60% of the global increase in pork consumption over the past decade,” he said.
