Japanese cattle imports to drop 30%

24/01/2003

Current estimates from the China Leather Industry Information Centre show that Japanese imports of cattle skins from the US will decrease by 30% to two million during 2003, despite US import prices having dropped 6%.

 

The current market price of US exported cattle skin is US$80 per hide. Analysts attribute the decrease to the reduction in imports from China and Korea.
