Following the meeting of commerce ministry officials, Indian ambassador to China and industry members, we expect the rapeseed meal exports to China is expected to resume soon . and it is expected to resume 4-500,000 tonnes of rapeseed meal exports to China after a gap of nearly six years.

The export of rapeseed to China was banned in 2012. We have enough stocks and industry can export 4-5 lakh tonnes of rapeseed meal to China,” the Solvent Extractors’ Association (SEA) executive director B V Mehta told reporters here.

India’s exports of rapeseed meal to China was suspended by the Chinese government in 2012 over quality issues.

The trade war between US and China has opened the avenues for export and China is looking at India for rapeseed meal supply that will fulfil Chinese standards. Before 2012, India exported 400,000  tonnes of oilmeals (100,000 tonnes soymeal and 300,000 tonnes rapeseed meal) to China.

The Chinese government also recently announced that it will reduce tariffs on soybean imported from India, South Korea, Bangladesh, Laos, and Sri Lanka from the current 3 per cent to zero amidst a looming trade war with the US.   

However, per importing regulation, China license registration must be done before exporting rapeseed meal to China . Per ChinaFeedOnline.com record, few Indian suppliers are registered China license,  as such the trading cant not start immediately after China lifted the ban of Indian Rapeseed meal/SBM.
