## Resource

Australia’s beef exports to China are hit hard by a 55% tariff, but the market isn’t collapsing—China’s massive frozen beef stockpiles are holding prices steady while they strategically release inventory and prep for next year’s demand. Aussie producers are adapting by storing beef in China’s bonded warehouses or even back in Australia, waiting for duty-free windows. Meanwhile, the U.S., Japan, South Korea, and the Philippines are stepping in to absorb the overflow—but South Korea’s looming quota could trigger another tariff. China’s move is clearly aimed at protecting its domestic cattle industry, with local beef already appearing on shelves. While Australia still has a market, the balance is shifting decisively toward local producers. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
