According to AHDB, for the first time China represented over 50% of the total UK pork exports at 10,600 tonnes in April.
Exports of sausages in April recorded a very strong increase on the year, apparently due to rising trade with Ireland, which was over five times higher than last year. Such a sharp increase should be viewed with caution; however, Irish import figures do suggest sausage shipments from the UK were about 25% higher during the month.
Pig offal exports saw 5% growth on the year. (with China up 32% year-on-year), though volumes to other destinations fell, including the Philippines and the EU.
