[quote user="BroadwayLion"] [quote user="Bucyrus"]And you are right that diversion of U.S. pork production to China will reduce the U.S. supply and raise the price. [/quote] It will NOT reduce supplies or raise the price. The factor that gets lost is that we are nowhere near full farm capacity, and we can grow and/or raise enough food to feed the world IF SOMEONE WANTS TO *BUY* THE PRODUCT. ROAR[/quote] I was referring to a diversion of U.S. pork supply to China, which is the stated goal.  That most certainly would reduce the U.S. supply and raise the U.S. price.  But you are right that U.S. production can be ramped up to make up for the diverted supply, and that will bring the price back down. Althought it could be that the growing Chinese demand could raise pork prices world wide, including the U.S.
