China's Customs Tariff Commission will exclude some U.S. agricultural products, including soybeans and pork, from additional tariffs. The move follows U.S. adjustments to tariffs on Chinese goods scheduled for October 1.
Chinese officials said they support domestic firms buying a certain amount of U.S. farm produce.
Tariff exclusions for soybeans and pork restore some competitiveness for U.S. origin supplies, supporting export demand and bullish sentiment for soybeans and meal.
