Which country is the largest consumption market for pork?

China is both the largest producer and consumer of pork, and hardly any of the products produced domestically are meant for the export market as the country takes up 50% of worldwide consumption. Imports of pork in China for 2020 rose greatly compared to 2019 with July imports amounting to 430K tons, a 7.5% increase from June and a 135.97% increase from the same period last year. As of currently, China has released its reserve pork stock in the market 30 times at an accumulated volume of 520K tons (an average of once per week).
