Before
reform and opening up, cattle were always treated as servant instead of meat.
Chinese government actively encouraged peasants to feed cattle on straws not
until the early 1990s in order to decrease straw waste and to promote the
cyclic utilization of straws. As a result, the costs of feeding cattle declined
and the passion of cattle farmers was stimulated. All of these promoted the
rapid development of beef cattle industry and the development of beef cattle
slaughtering industry and beef processing industry in China. In 2012, the
output volume of beef totaled 6.623 million tons in China, increasing by 2.3%
YOY.
The main
cattle production model is the scattered model in China, which is quite
different from large-scale cattle production models abroad. Due to its
exacerbating grassland quality and insufficient grassland resources, China
lacks the basic foundation of developing “modern grassland animal husbandry”.
Meanwhile, American-styled “industrialized large-scale animal husbandry” is not
yet universal. In addition, China is a country with a large population and
abundant cheap labor resources, so scattered cattle production model is the
major cattle production model in China.

China beef
cattle production turned from northwest pasturing areas to regions with
agriculture economy advantages. As a result, it formed four beef cattle
industrial zones in the Central Plains, the Northeast, the Northwest and the
Southwest. According to the statistics yearbook of China animal husbandry, the
national cattle stock volume was 104.592 million in 1991 and it increased to
126.983 million in 1999, which accounted for 10% of the global cattle stock
volume in the same period. In 2011, the beef cattle stock volume was 107.78
million in China, increasing by 1.43% YOY.
In recent
years, the cattle stock volume increases rapidly in China. The annual fattening
stock volume increased from the 13.039 million in 1991 to the 47.75 million in
2011, with the CAGR of 6.7%. Because of the rapid development of beef cattle
slaughtering and processing industry in China, beef output volume increased
from the 1.535 million tons in 1991 to the 6.623 million tons in 2012, with the
CAGR of 7.2%. The beef output volume in China accounts for over 10% of the
global beef output volume, so China was the third largest beef producer after the
U.S. and Brazil. Meanwhile, its proportion of beef output volume in the total
national meat output volume also increased from the 4.4% in 1991 to the 7.9% in
2012.
In 2012,
China imported 124,246 bulls and the import volume has kept increasing since
2007. However, China mainly imports milk cows like Holstein from Australia, New
Zealand and Uruguay. Beijing Be Green Import & Export Co., Ltd. is the
largest cow importers with 22.82% market share.

In 2012,
China imported 61,404.41 tons beef with the import value and the average import
price of USD 254.6256 million and 4,146.70 USD/ton respectively. So China has
become a net beef importer.
Because of
the long production cycle and low reproductive rate of beef cattle, it is hard
to increase the supply through adjusting the production scale. Along with the
development of Chinese economy and the wide application of agricultural
machinery, the labor value of cattle gradually disappeared and the supply
system that based on traditional scattered production model almost collapsed.
However, new large-scale cattle production models have not been established
yet, so the situation of weak beef supply is hard to change in a short time.
Along with the increasing income level and the changing eating habits of
Chinese citizens (promotion of Western-style food and so on), the demand per
capita for beef will increase greatly, which will aggravate the contradiction
between the supply and demand in return. At present, the annual beef
consumption per capita is less than 5 kilograms in China, which is less than
half of the global per capita consumption level. Due to the increasing cattle
production cost and insufficient beef supply in China beef market, beef price
has been increasing in recent years.
It is
predicted that both the price and import volume of beef will keep increasing in
China in the coming years. As to cattle production enterprises, beef processing
enterprises and beef import enterprises, there are many investment
opportunities in beef cattle production industry and beef processing industry
in China.
