WTO favours US in chicken dispute with China

In an example to the SA chicken producers who, as recently pointed out in FTWO, have been battling importers of chicken and appealing for increased import duties (See: "Consumers to pay more for chicken..."), the US and China have just been fighting their own chicken war. And, in this case, it’s those importing chickens from the US that have won this hefty skirmish. The World Trade Organisation (WTO) has adopted an August 2 dispute settlement panel report in favour of the US in a major trade dispute with China, proving the country's imposition of duties on US chicken "broiler" products violates international trade rules.
