From January to June this year, the total volume of chicken exports from the United States reached the highest level in history. The main export countries were Mexico, China, Cuba and the Philippines. These four markets together accounted for 49.2% of the total chicken exports of the United States. Among them, Cuba and the Philippines have both set historical records for the volume and amount of chicken imported from the United States, while Mexico and China have also set their own historical records.

In the first half of this year, the US egg export volume set a record high, and the export volume reached the second highest in history. In the first half of this year, the US's egg export volume and export value to South Korea both set a record high, and its export volume to Mexico and Hong Kong reached the second record in history.

The chairman of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation Organization of the United States said: "Although our industry has faced many difficulties in the past year, it has overcome the difficulties with record export volume and export value." "This proves the strength of our industry. Strength and efforts also illustrate the huge demand for American poultry meat and eggs in markets around the world."

Specific data show that in the first half of this year, US chicken exports totaled 1.856 million tons, an increase of 6.8% over the same period last year, and exports reached 2.136 billion US dollars, an increase of 21.1%. Shipments to Cuba increased by 96.6% to 163,366 tons. Thanks to the increase in the use of cooked chicken and the increase in consumption of chicken breast and wings in the United States, exports to Mexico have also increased.

Exports to China increased by 5.9% to 217,000 tons, of which chicken feet accounted for 59.6% to 129,400 tons. After a five-year ban, China will restart importing chicken products from the United States after 2020. At present, the United States is the second largest source of imports of Chinese chicken meat and the main source of imports of Chinese chicken feet.
