CHINA will impose a countervailing duty of up to 31.4 percent on imports of American chicken in a final ruling, the Ministry of Commerce said yesterday.
It was the latest Chinese move as trade disputes intensified after the global financial crisis.
On Monday, China announced it would launch an anti-subsidy investigation into imports of potato starch from the European Union.
The final ruling said the Unites States government provided subsidies for their chicken producers and the subsidized chicken imports caused substantial damage to the Chinese industry - the same conclusion as that in the preliminary ruling made in April.
The duty to be imposed will last five years.
No figures were available on the volume of Chinese imports of American chicken.
The trade disputes between China and the US have shown no signs of easing.Since September 2009 when the US decided to impose punitive tariffs on Chinese tire exporters, trade rows have extended to other products.
