China's November soybean imports from U.S. fall to zero on trade war: customs

BEIJING (Reuters) - China’s soybean imports in November from the United States, its second-largest supplier, tumbled to zero from a year ago, while shipments from Brazil last month nearly doubled from a year ago, customs data showed on Monday, amid the Sino-U.S. trade war.

China brought in 5.07 million tonnes of soybeans from Brazil in November, up more than 80 percent from 2.76 million tonnes a year ago, data from the General Administration of Customs showed.

U.S. imports plunged from 4.7 million tonnes in November 2017 and were down from 67,000 tonnes in October.
