U.S. meat exports during the week ending July 8th failed to hold at the previous week’s lofty levels. That is due in part to it being a holiday week, with many U.S. operations closed July 5th in observance of Independence Day. The USDA says pork export sales of 10,600 tons were down 76% on the week, with a net reduction by China, and beef export sales of 9,300 tons were 61% less than the week before.
