China Food & Agribusiness Bimonthly July/August 2021

This is the bullwhip effect, where supply and demand shocks ripple through the supply chain. The Chinese government has taken actions to curb price hikes of agricultural commodities, such as corn and pork, through increasing supply and other measures.
