Taiwan's agriculture minister said on November 4 that soybean meal supply will be sufficient through year-end after the Chung Lien oil company shutdown disrupted soybean oil and meal output. Measures include domestic capacity increases, feed formula changes to use less soymeal, and a 5% tariff exemption on imports.
The plant shutdown cuts domestic crushing and soybean oil output, tightening local meal supply and pushing up import demand, though government measures limit the impact on feed costs for hog and poultry producers.
