China began rolling back measures that had propped up the yuan, scrapping a 20 percent reserve requirement on yuan forward trades and removing a reserve requirement on yuan deposits for foreign banks. The yuan has risen 6.7 percent against the dollar this year, reversing last year's losses.
Easing these curbs makes it cheaper to buy dollars and sell yuan, which may limit further yuan gains and affect the cost of dollar-priced grain imports. The change is a currency policy adjustment with limited direct effect on feed prices.
