In Brazil, Reuters reported that an official at Brazil’s Agriculture Ministry confirmed that China has approved imports of Brazilian sorghum. He added that the first cargos could be shipped this year.
The agreement comes as relations between China and the United States, traditionally a major exporter of sorghum to the Asian country, have sharply deteriorated amid trade tariffs instigated by U.S. President Donald Trump, the report stated.
China’s General Administration of Customs (GACC) wrote to Brazil saying that its sorghum is eligible for shipment, the report added.
