Haggard fielded a number of questions on U.S. beef, which currently lacks access to China. He noted that beef from Australia, Uruguay, Canada, Argentina and Brazil is available online in China, while European pork is competing with U.S. pork on the country's emerging e-commerce battlefield.
"Online meat sales are relatively new and still challenging due to logistical issues, but there is great confidence in future growth," said Haggard.
