We are the leading poultry producers in the world, and chicken is the meat of choice in China, just as it is for Russia, especially leg quarters and chicken feet. China is already our fourth largest export market for poultry. With increased trade ties, even more Georgia poultry will be sold there. There is no way we will miss with this market. Also, there will be opportunities for American cotton.
China grows cotton, but our fiber is better suited for their blend needs.
The same holds true for our tobacco. The tobacco we produce has the best flavor and aroma in the world and is necessary to be included in the blend for quality cigarettes. There's already a market for soybeans now as well as Georgia's most famous nuts - pecans, and many of our other major commodities as well. It's not inconceivable that someday we will have a market in China for them, too. Click here to return to the home page or simply close the window .
