Abstract: In May 2019, the United States raised tariffs on US $ 200 billion worth of Chinese goods exported to the United States from 10% to 25%. After a pause of several months, the Sino-US trade friction restarted again, and the world′s pork production and trade pattern also faced new changes. This paper summarizes the regional pattern of pork production and trade in the world, analyzes the characteristics of pork production and trade and the revealing comparative advantage of major importing and exporting countries, and discusses the impacts of Sino-US trade friction on world pork production and trade pattern. The main results and conclusions are as follows the relatively monopolistic pattern and high volatility of the world pork market will not change for a long period of time; pork production and export from other major producing countries such as the United State, Canada, Brazil will show a wax and wane trend; there are many variables in the relatively scattered world pork import pattern; the basic situation of China′s massive pork import will not change in the short term.

Key words: trade disputes, pork, production, import, export
