US chicken meat exports have experienced a decline for the past year, with a 2% decrease in the first nine months of 2022 compared to the same period in 2021, reaching just over 2.432 million tons. The total exports for the past 12 months also saw a 2.5% decrease, falling short of 3.3 million tons. The domestic demand for chicken has been strong, particularly during Thanksgiving, contributing to the low export numbers. Without including chicken feet/paws exports, North American exports for 2022 are projected to be around 3.250 million tons, which is below the total exports in 2020 and 2021. From January to July 2022, the US exported 155 thousand tons of chicken feet/paws to China, which made up 40% of China's imports for this item in the same period.
