There are growing concerns over the accuracy of China's economic data, particularly in the soybean trade sector. Recently, China's published import data for soybeans has shown significant discrepancies compared to other estimates. According to official figures, China imported over 96 million tons of soybeans from Brazil and the US last year, the world's leading exporters. However, data from these two nations indicate that more than 101 million tons were delivered to China. This disparity has ignited skepticism and raised questions about the reliability of China's soybean trade data.
