Abstract
Assessment of Soy-Based Imports into the US and Associated Foreign Animal Disease Status
Highlights
Feed has been linked to the US porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) outbreak, and African swine fever virus (ASFV) contaminated feed has been shown to causeKansas State University Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service2021 ANIMAL Feed AND PET FOOD RESEARCH infection in pigs as well.[4,5] Several viruses have been shown to survive shipping models in a variety of feed ingredients including soy products, such as soybean meal and soy oilcake.[6]
This study evaluated soy imports into the US as a whole and from foreign animal disease positive (FAD+) countries to determine which products are being imported in the highest quantities and observe potential trends in imports from FAD+ countries
Twenty-one different Harmonized Tariff Schedule (HTS) codes were queried to determine quantities (US tons, T) and breakdown of different soy product types being imported into the US from 2015 to 2020
Summary
2021 ANIMAL Feed AND PET FOOD RESEARCH infection in pigs as well.[4,5] Several viruses have been shown to survive shipping models in a variety of feed ingredients including soy products, such as soybean meal and soy oilcake.[6] Several viruses included in this study such as ASFV, classical swine fever virus (CSFV), Ajueszky’s disease (pseudorabies), and foot and mouth disease (FMDV) are foreign animal diseases in the US and of direct interest to the swine industry. The objectives of this paper were 1) to evaluate annual soy imports into the US by product type and determine the portion coming from countries with foreign animal disease (FAD), and 2) track soy import trends in regard to imports from FAD+ countries
